Wednesday 11/8 PLEASE REMEMBER TO VOTE

 

I didn't send a newsletter yesterday.  I sent the one on Sunday later in the day and yesterday's was very short so I waited until today.  Thanks for sharing your reports, everyone.  Keep them coming!!  I love looking at all the photos on Facebook. What a great weekend.  I missed our After Party tonight because I came home with a COLD!!  I was not happy.  It was our last After Party and I was too sick to come.  Wah!!  I was fine for the entire weekend so I'm thankful for that but when I got home, BAM!  Bad cold.  Anyway, I hope everyone had fun at the After Party.  I'm so sorry I couldn't be there and I'm also sorry that Diane had to do all the setting up but I think Sheila and others helped her.  Lindy sent me a note saying she is going to do one next year since the event will be in Orlando.  There was a cake that said "Goodbye Tampa Bay Classic."  That made me sad.  We are going to miss having the event in Tampa but there was just not another hotel with a large enough dance floor that didn't have astronomical prices and the hotel in Orlando is very nice, centrally located with lots of places to eat around it, and all the parks will be decked out for the holidays so I think it is a good move.  And then there is that pool that everyone loves.

Subject: Tampa Bay Line Dance Classic AFTER PARTY Monday Nov. 7th LAST NIGHT

 

I wasn't able to attend OUR LAST AFTER PARTY because I have a really bad cold.  Wah.  I saw all the pictures and heard from everyone so I was there vicariously.  I hope everyone had a great time.  I loved the cake that Diane ordered that said "Goodbye Tampa.  We will miss you."  This event was started in our home town 15 years ago by Arline Winerman and continued with Jennifer and Jason Cameron and it is just special to the people in our area.  I know the move to Orlando is only a little over an hour away and there was no choice but to move it.  It's just that we have special memories and it's a little sad for us.  The hotel in Orlando is so much nicer and all the parks will be decked out for the holidays so bring the family and make it a vacation before the total Christmas rush at the parks.  Just take the kids out of school and DO IT.  LOL.  Anyway, thanks to everyone who came last night.  We have always appreciated you and we love our little class.  Hope you can join us sometime soon.  Thanks to Diane Poole and Cheryl and everyone who pitched in to help set up and clean up and bring something to share.  Here is what was played last night.

Dallas Proveaux
Fabulous weekend at the Tampa Bay Line Dance Classic. Wonderful dances by great choreographers. Rebecca Lee was an instant hit and a new favorite. Fred Whitehouse and Simon Ward were awesome as were all the instructors. Wonderful to see Guyton Mundy and heartbreaking at the same time. Knowing that this was the last time I would have the opportunity to take lessons from this man who is undeniably the most talented choreographer to ever grace a dance floor. Guyton colors outside the lines, thinks outside the box, and is the most innovative choreographer I have ever seen. Who else would choreograph a hit dance which incorporates a towel as part of the dance. Guyton you will be missed more than you can imagine but I wish you a very happy retirement, good health, and the time to do all the things you desire.

Trying to get back to a normal Monday at work is tough when you've just had an amazing weekend of dancing and socializing with friends in Tampa!  What a fun dance event put on by JC Dance Productions. I like the smaller, more intimate setting.  It's also awesome to see so many young people at the event!  It gave the weekend a special energy that I won't soon forget. Bittersweet for me, as it was the last event that I will have the pleasure of taking a workshop from Guyton. The Guyton power hour on Sunday was definitely a highlight. So many of us had a look of terror on our faces trying to remember all those Guyton dances from way back whenever!!

 

It was also great having Rebecca Lee from Malaysia and Simon Ward from Australia at the event.  We don't get to see these international instructors that often, so having them here in the US was a real treat.  I absolutely LOVE Rebecca's energy on the dance floor.  What a fun and friendly instructor as well.  She brings such fresh positive energy!

 

Some of the workshops that caught my attention:

 

Come Home (Gary O'Reilly) - High Int Nightclub, fantastic dance and a lovely track. This was taught in Chicago at Windy City, but I was too tired to take the class.  Sandy Albano did a great job of teaching this dance.  Not an easy teach, since this dance has so many turns.  I LOVE this one!

 

Recovering (Guillaume Richard) - Low Int Waltz.  Another dance that I first saw in Chicago, but missed the teach.  A popular dance to a great song from Celine Dion.

 

Crash (Fred Whitehouse) - Int WCS feel. I took this in Chicago, and really liked it.  It's a good dance, and I'm starting to like it more the more I dance it.

 

Do Something Crazy (Guyton Mundy & Shane McKeever) - Phrased advanced.  The "TOWEL DANCE".  This dance is just FUN!! I heard that at every event the color of the towel is different. I have a white one, now a black one. I know someone out there is collecting them all...

 

Gimmie Gimmie (Rebecca Lee) - Phrased intermediate. An absolute HIT DANCE from the weekend, especially with the younger dancers. This is a really cute dance - make sure you watch the videos!

 

Falling (Rachael McEnaney-White) - Advanced Nightclub.  Marilyn McNeal did a good job of teaching this dance (which is NOT an easy dance, especially at 9am!!)  Beautiful track, and a gorgeous dance.  I took this dance from Rachael in Chicago, but definitely needed a review.

 

Sound of Silence (Guyton Mundy) - Advanced.  My last workshop from Guyton EVER!  One of my favorite dances from the weekend.  Definitely a floor filler.  Love this one!!
