wait!!!! I'll send out another newsletter tonight for the things that come

SUBJECT: 1ST AND 3RD TUESDAY CLASS IN LARGO, FLA
Last night was that extra Tuesday, which means no class, but NEXT Tuesday (April 7) we start back up with reviews as requested or needed and teaches of dances already promised plus new ones we'll be bringing back from Boston!
Any input on what you would like or changes that can be made are ALWAYS welcome!
We are fortunate enough to be able to make those changes in our class!
Let us not forget that this class is ours and we can pick and choose any dance we want and go over it twenty times if needed! Where else can you do that!??
I'll be sending out the past Tuesday note so you can see again what we've done lately and the ones we didn't get to yet!
The Big News is that we are fast approaching our 1 yr anniversay which is May 5th! :o) That doesn't seem possible and I can't tell you enough how Thankful Carol and I are to have been involved in this great class. The dances done at our first class were Bam A Lam (which is still requested to be retaught and done in our class and I will do that for you Jillian and anyone else that wants it!), Irish Spirit, Dance Like You're The Only One, and Phenomenon!
I have one problem with that and it is that May 5th is my precious granddaughter Vanessa's 7th Birthday and I will have to move the class to either the Tuesday before or the Tuesday after! We'll leave it open for discussion and we can all decide! We need a party of course and I think we should definetly do all those dances that night!
We'll talk about it at our next class!
Again Thank You All for making our class so great! We do hope we'll see the young and busy dance friends back as they complete their semester of school plus our other friends that have become busier in their lives. It would be nice to have everyone there for our Anniversary Party so hope you all can make room in your busy schedule! We'll let everyone know when it is when we pick the date!
See you Tuesday, APRIL 7! 630 to 730 reviews, hard teaches or just dancing! 730 lessons start!
Thanks Again Everyone!
Diane
NOTE FROM ME: And I want to thank Diane for getting everything organized each week and all the people who keep this class going. We're not big in size but we certainly are big in enthusiasm and everyone pitches in to teach and help in whatever way they can. We couldn't do it without it being a group project and we have all become better friends in the process. I would love to see some new faces join us soon. Even if you don't know all the dances we are doing the first week, we are adding new ones all the time and you'll be caught up in no time and we try to make sure we play dances that EVERYONE knows so you will be up and dancing and not just sitting. Can't wait to see what the hits from Boston are so we can get started on those!!

I think the line dance Annie Haris is referring to is MOON GLOW by Hazel
Pace which is a 32 counts, 4 walls, beginner/intermediate line dance
choreographed to the music, Suzanne Suzanne by the Bellamy Brothers. The step
sheet can be downloaded from Kickit. Hope this is the correct dance that you are
looking for.

SUBJECT: SOUTHPORT REVIEW
FROM: RYAN
Had a great time at Maggie's annual event in Southport last weekend with a great crowd of 350+ dancers. A great atmosphere from start to finish and a good mix of dances too - a mix of mainstream floorfillers, popular funky hits, and some oldies here and there. It was a hard job for the DJ's Dave and Andrew but they did a good job catering for the crowd. The fancy dress themes were well supported too with many in their horror/space wear for the Twilight Zone on Saturday Night and many in their Red, White & Blue on the Sunday.
Maggie taught 5 of her new dances over the weekend. Firstly Life Without U which was a quick spot teach on the Friday night. Saturday started with a quick run through of her easy improver dance T'morrow Never Knows. Then on with Issues, J Ho and Breathe Slow which all filled the floor throughout the workshops and social dancing in the evenings too. We did J Ho and Breathe Slow at class this week and have already taught Issues and all 3 are popular. John Robinson was great entertainment over the weekend. His routine with Craig was great fun and his teaching was enthusiastic and enjoyable just to watch. The three dances he taught were Stereo Nights (2 years old), Get On The Floor (1 year old) and Summerlove (5 years old) so nothing new on his long journey over this time.
Teresa & Vera had 1 new dance called Lookin' Good which was a fun country dance to a classic Mavericks track you will have heard at the festivals. They only choreographed it that morning so very good to say that. They also threw in a couple of oldies such as Quando and I Said I Love You. Craig Bennett released an easy intermediate pop dance Just Can't Get Enough which was popular. A few different sections for an easy fun dance. Dee taught one of her new dances to Anastacia called The Way I See It which was a 64/4 dance with a Motown feel to it and a nice improver one Lonely Nevermore.
Many hit dances over the weekend filled the floor. Most notably Francien's Make My Day got everybody up as did Andrew, Simon & Sheila's In Control, Robbie's We Believe, Alan's Human-Dancer, Kim's Guantanamera, Craig's Poker Face, Shaz's Insomnia, Dee's Spotlight & Too Close For Comfort.
Look forward to next years event with Kate Sala...

SUBJECT: CLASS LAST WEEK
FROM: RYAN IN THE UK
Hi All,
Last week we did 2 of Maggie's new dances that were released back at Southport. First off, J HO which is a 64/4 Higher Intermediate dance and the dance of the weekend at Maggie's. The class had great fun with this one...an original dance and a catchy track. The other was BREATHE SLOW which is also 64/4 and choreographed to the Cahill Radio Edit by Alesha Dixon. This was also liked by most of the class - an upbeat pop one along the lines of Head Phones.
Popular mainstream revision was Maggie's Issues, Neville and Julie's Alive, and Craig's Poker Face. Popular newline revision was Scott's Broken Glass and Dan's So Persuasive. All dances are going well at the moment. Dances during the night were No Need To Rush, What's The Deal?, Pick It Up, Everything About U, Baila Baila Conmigo, Somethin' Crazy, Breathe Slow, Make My Day, J Ho, Insomnia, Issues, Alive, Too Close For Comfort, Broken Glass, In Control, Poker Face, Breathe Slow, J Ho, So Persuasive.
Cheers,
Ryan

SUBJECT: Information on creating a line dancing event
I am a tiny little person with a tiny little dream of creating a line dancing event that everyone would want to come to. Here's what I need: How's it start? How much does it cost? How do I get the great instructors? What do I do? What about vendors? What about food? Lodging? Pay for those great instructors? Where do I find time in a calendar year for such a great event? How many people would I need to help me get it going, keep it going, and not lose my sanity in the process?
Here is my idea...I live in beautiful mountains and in the summer it might get to 85 before the afternoon breeze kicks in and cools it back down. I am in California, in Big Bear. We have a great big convention center with a motel 6 right across the street. The convention center has a restaurant inside that has the BEST food with healthy choices too. My husband is a DJ and I have a friend who is a DJ as well...What if everyone would want to come to the mountains when it is blistering hot everywhere else, and have 3 days of line dancing instruction and dance parties in the evenings? Would it, could it possibly happen?
This newsletter is the best place that I could think of to send out my questions and share my dream. I begin every single day reading this, looking for those pieces of information that will make me a better teacher, dancer, and person...I look forward to hearing from any and all, please email me directly...Love, Kathy

I got a good sleep last night--I don't know whether it's due to relief or exhaustion, but my best sleep all week is after the Monday performance.
I watched a video of the show for the first time since we started. I was delighted with the segment of me with my Segway group, thanking fans for their votes [which I thought] turned out great and not phony. I loved when they briefly showed me dancing with a stranger--as a joke, I had offered to give dance instruction to anyone who would vote for me.
I looked at my actual dance. No, it's not great. But it was a lot FOR ME. I know of one half-beat that I missed when I didn't turn my foot far enough, but other than that I did it as well as I could. We had lifts and flips and kept our legs in synch. Did I come across as strong and haughty? No. Did we have a lot of intricate footwork? No. But what we did, we did fairly well.
The judges scored us a 12. In our confessional Karina and I pleaded with them to lower it to a 10 just because 10 sounds like a better number. (It's a geek thing.)
I always try to keep a strong direction toward what I think is good, in terms of values. I have heard from many strangers who have been inspired enough to envision themselves dancing and enjoying it, and I consider this the best thing about my participation in DWTS. A lot of average people, many sitting at their computer terminals all day, see me doing my best on the show and feel a kinship. I'm an example that you can enjoy it even if you're pushing 60, are overweight, have been injured, and have two left feet.
But the low scores from the judges pass a different message to these people: if you are not close to perfection then it's okay for you to be ridiculed and humiliated. Some people may be so shy that the mere fear of ridicule would stop them not only from dancing, but also from doing other things in their lives. This is not a good message to send.
To end on a high note, the good news is that this is the third day that I can walk without a limp, and am not having to take aspirin.
Love to all, Woz

FROM: RYAN
Hi,
Just back from a great weekend at the Durrant House Hotel in Devon with Big
Dave and special guest choreographers Shaz, Dee and MT Groove. The hotel was
nice and the rooms were lovely and modern. The food was OK but the staff could
have been a little merrier. That aside, Dave and Pauline had planned a great
weekend of fun and dancing for us...
Friday night was "Silver" and many dressed in their sparkly tops. The
dancing was an even mix of mainstream and newline playing to the crowd who were
there. Saturday night was "Flashing" (lights!) and we were all given our own
flashy rings and necklaces which made the room look great! Popular mainstream
included Make My Day, Moonlight Kiss, No Need To Rush, Insomnia and Spotlight
amongst others. Popular newline included So Persuasive, Round Round, Think About
It, Somethin' Crazy, Broken Glass and What's The Deal.
Dee taught a great new NC2S called HUSH HUSH. Along the lines of Poetry In
Motion - flows really well to the music and enough to keep you thinking. Dee
also taught her dance COME TO ME which went well. Shaz taught her new funky
dance MAGIC which was very well received. Typical funky Shaz dance with new
steps to a great track by Justin Timberlake. Shaz also taught her dance JUVENILE
which many had already done. MT Groove were up next teaching their new dance to
the classic Puff Daddy remix I'll Be Missing You called NOTORIOUS CHA. As always
with MT dances, the steps were original and worked well with the music. Other
teaches were J HO by Shaz and ANGELS ON THE MOON by MT Groove - both of which
were popular.
Danced until 3:30ish Friday and 4:30ish on Saturday (and losing the hours
sleep!). It was great to do some classic newline dances such as Boo Boo's
Bounce, Buttons, Cold Blooded, Explicit, How Kud U, I Scream, Latin Groove, Let
Me Love You, Playa, Time To Ride, X It Out, A Single Moment, Can't Stand Still,
Crooked Letter Y, Drop The Heat, Get A Grip, Funkalicious, Promiscuous, Smack
Dat, Swing It, Uh Oh, Just Say It, Cadillac Ride, Natural Selection, Tik Tok
Too, Afterglow Cha, Scandalous, Easy, Brucie, Liverpool Fling and Cha Cha
Tonight.
A great weekend : )

SUBJECT: Danville (Virginia) Dance Invitational
FROM: Bonnie Mathews linedan...@nc.rr.com
Harold Logan hosted the first of three weekend workshops for 2009 on March 13 and 14. There were about 35 dancers of all levels from Virginia and North Carolina on the dance floor. While people were arriving and registering, Mary Kay Johnson, our dj, played requests. Two of these dances that people picked up on the floor while the steps were called as they were danced were What A Surprise by Max Perry (easy beginner dance to Neil Seda's What a Surprise) and Cabo San Lucas by Rep Ghazali, an easy intermediate level dance (Cabo San Lucas by Toby Keith). The first dance was taught a little after 10 a.m. and there was open dancing between each instructor's teaches. Harolds events are for all levels of dancers and therefore all levels are taught throughout the day, with the high level intermediate to advanced dances being taught on Sunday.

The first dance was taught a little after 10 a.m. and there was open dancing between each instructor's teaches. Harolds events are for all levels of dancers and therefore all levels are taught throughout the day, with the high level intermediate to advanced dances being taught on Sunday.
The workshop began with Harold teaching two dances, LITTLE RED BOOK by Dee
Musk, which the beginners (and everyone else) enjoyed, and ROMEO & JULIET by
Gaye Teather. This is a 32 count, four wall (one tag) easy
intermediate dance that goes to Love Story by Taylor Swift and was a favorite of
the weekend. It was requested many times in open dance. The step
description states that Little Red Book is a floor split for this music so
teaching both choices gives us something to take home to all our class
levels. I was next in the teaching line up and taught SWING-N-CHA by
Patrick Fleming and Zac Detweiller a 64 count, two wall intermediate dance with
no tags or restarts. It is a fusion of Cha and West Coast Swing
which make this dance something different. The music is My Society by
DePhazz and Patrick and Zac did a great job as the steps fit this music just
perfectly. (I noticed Zac is teaching this in Boston this weekend so if
you are looking for something different, give it a try!) Gail Smith did
the last morning teach with RUNAROUND SUE, Rachel McEnaney’s high level beginner
dance to the song of the same name by Dion. This is a dance that was fun
for all levels and Gail had all of us dancing it in a very short time. There was
just enough time left for her to teach LEARNING TO FLY, Christopher Petre’s
4-wall, intermediate dance done to One Step At A Time by Jordin Sparks. No
tags or restarts, but an interesting leg swing in the third eight-count that
makes this dance unique. (This dance gives us a floor split for
Pepper Siquieros’ beginner dance to the same song called One Step at a
Time.) After an hour break for lunch, we resumed the workshop. I
started with EASE ON DOWN, a 64 count easy intermediate dance (one 4-count tag
into a restart) by JP & Bracken Ellis Potter and Rachel McEnaney. It
goes to Michael Jackson’s Ease On Down. Lots of repetition on the
first 8 counts got everyone through the double syncopated vine. The dance
was made for this music—it just flows right along and no one had any issues with
the tag/restart. (Bracken is teaching this one in Boston this
weekend, too, so check it out there.) There was just enough time left to
have some fun and lighten the atmosphere during my teaching slot since it
appeared we all ate more than we should have and were kind of sluggish.
COMIC STRIP (AKA AN ODE TO GUYTON MUNDY) by Zac Detweiller & Jillian Morse,
did the trick. This one is a 32 count 4 wall beginner dance, with 8 counts
of arms—but just arms and no feet--for counts 25-32. Even I can do that,
especially since I couldn’t do three of the four Guyton dances that the arm
movements are from! This one is guaranteed to bring smiles to the
dancers faces—and it did. Matter of fact, we found out you could do this
dance to almost everything—and even if you don’t get up and dance, you can just
sit in your chair and do the arms! (Another teach this weekend in
Boston—if you need to take a break from the higher level dances—go take this one
from Zac.) Gail was up next with Baby Believe, a beautiful, flowing
waltz from Peter & Alison. It’s a 4 wall,
intermediate level dance with no tags or restarts and goes to the song of the
same name by Kristy Lee Cook. There is one spot in the music with a 3
count hold, but no one had any trouble at all just dancing through
it. Her final teach for Saturday was Make My Day by Francien
Sittrop, 32 counts, no tags or restarts. This one is way up on Carol’s
list, so needs no description. Harold finished up the day with Triple M,
which came in second in the pro-choreography contest at Windy City last
year. Choreographed by Max Perry, Michel Perron & Maurice Rowe to You
Keep Me Hanging On by Diana Ross & The Supremes. This is an easy
intermediate level dance with no tags or restarts. Even though it was well
after 4 p.m. when Harold started his teach and we were all worn out from a full
day of open dancing and learning dances, we were able to grasp this one with no
trouble.
It was out for dinner and then back to dancing from 7 to 10 p.m. Mary
Kaye always does a wonderful job of mixing up the requests so that everyone gets
to dance--not just the event dancers. We danced all levels and styles of
dances, from Higher and Higher to Creepin' and from dances that are popular
locally to dances that are danced at all the big events.
Sunday, we began all over again. Harold's events are known for
teaching what the attendees want to learn and Sunday was no exception. It is
also the "anything goes" day of the event. There was a request for I Held
Your Hand by Merete Sevel and Niels Poulsen, which put me first in the teaching
line-up. It's a 96 count A-B advanced dance, but so worth the time to
learn!! Music is My Immortal by Evanescence. A small group of
dancers were on the floor to learn this one and were dancing it in less
than an hour. Hardly a misstep in the group! Gail was up next
with a requested teach of Notice the Danger, by Guyton Mundy and Jordan
Lloyd. This one was requested on Saturday as a teach on Sunday
and Gail did a great job with it, especially since she'd never taught it
before. With a small group of dancers trying to learn this one and
everyone knowing each other, it went very smoothly when we put this dance into
its contra lines. Those of us who just couldn't do arms and feet together
ended up using the arms from Comic Strip instead. (It worked!!)
Finally, Gail did a quick but thorough teach of Insomnia by Shaz Walton (64
counts, 2 walls,intermediate). The turns/turning are almost all to the
left, so the jury is still out for me because I have vertigo and have to do
turns that vary direction, but I plan to work on this one and see what I can
modify since it goes so well to the music (Insomnia by Craig David).
I’m looking forward to doing his all over again on June 21-22!!

SUBJECT: TEXAS HOE-DOWN '09
FROM: monap...@sbcglobal.net
What an awesome event this past weekend at the TEXAS HOE-DOWN in Fort Worth, TX. It was definitely a twentieth anniversary celebration to remember. Stop and think a minute how many dance events you can think of that have made it to the TWENTY YEAR mark! It absolutely speaks volumes about incredible event directors Jerry, Virginia, Missy, & Judi. They outdo themselves year after year, and this year was certainly no exception.
Special to the TEXAS HOE-DOWN this year was the addition of NTA ACCREDITATION WORKSHOPS with training and testing, and this addition was EXTREMELY well-received. NTA Dance Committee member Debra Cleckler from Georgia, assisted by Jim Cleckler, worked non-stop training and testing teachers and dancers throughout the event!
Line Dances taught during the weekend were:
BODY CHA (Poulsen) - fun music, friendly to all skill levels
SURE HOPE YOU MEAN IT (Potter/Ellis)
MY NEXT LOVE (Poulsen) - gorgeous Fredrik Kempe song, friendly to all skill levels
MARRY FOR MONEY (Rathbun)
JUNGLE FREAK (Machado/Lorah) - classic, fun, contra dance, friendly to all skill levels - this one was a big hit in open dancing
PUT A RING ON IT (Hodgson) - catchy song by Beyonce
RIVER OF LOVE (Richards)
TURN DOWN THE LIGHTS (Dornstedt) - friendly to all skill levels
HIDEAWAY CHA (Brady/Davis/Syzmanski) - special class incorporating cha technique and how to improve your technique for this very classic dance
CRAZY LOVE (Wallace)
SOMEONE'S SUNSHINE (Fleming) - great class incorporating lilt technique
POKER FACE (Bennett) - very fun music, a little more challenging, one easy restart
BOSSY (Perron) - catchy music (I can't get this one out of my head!)
DREAMS (Mundy/Bennett) - tricky to master dancing on the diagonals, well-worth the effort
FIRST TIME WALTZ (Morgan) - great class incorporating rise & fall technique
DUCK SOUP (Trace) - fun little dance
MAKE MY DAY (Sittrop) - fun steps that fit the fun music
UNBROKEN WALTZ (Knights) - slow, pretty waltz, friendly to all skill levels
The 2009 TEXAS HOE-DOWN Line Dance Staff was made up of Bernadette Carmichael, Bob Clanton, Tonya Lied, Barbara Albright, Linda McDaniel, and Mona Puente. Among many other wow acts in the Saturday Night Show, Tonya Lied entertained the audience with her Line Dance Super Star Solo Medley, and sixteen line dancers had a spot on the program dancing MAKE MY DAY.
The TEXAS HOE-DOWN was once again a great weekend and has a permanent place on my planner year after year!

SUBJECT: NTA ACCREDITATION WORKSHOPS HELD IN FORT WORTH, TX
FROM: monap...@sbcglobal.net
Those of you that know me know I'm very proud of my home state of Texas and my home town of Fort Worth! Last weekend, Texas dance instructors and Texas dancers gave me cause to brag even more!
Offered this past weekend at the Texas Hoe-Down dance event in Fort Worth, TX, were NTA (National Teachers Association) ACCREDITATION WORKSHOPS for training and testing. These workshops were SO very well-received by Texas dancers and dance instructors!
I'm so proud that Texas instructors are striving to be the best instructors they can be and Texas dancers are striving to be the best dancers they can be. They want to improve their dancing, their technique, their teaching abilities, their understanding of all aspects of dance--from posture to proper terminology, to understanding of different rhythms, to which foot positions should be used for which movements, to how to avoid injury...the list goes on and on. Texas dancers and dance instructors were so hungry for this helpful information and were soaking it up like sponges. They participated in the Workshops and studied and practiced and asked questions and went through the testing process and then couldn't wait for more. Everyone I asked said it was an invaluable experience and they were so glad they came.
Dancing is an endless learning process. Not only will we never know it all, but also some aspects of dancing continue to change. One of the huge benefits of membership in the NTA organization is that NTA strives to keep its members current with changes and preferred terminology and helpful hot off the press information. To find out about joining NTA and/or about participating in NTA ACCREDITATION WORKSHOPS, go to www.ntadance.com

From: Andy
Morning dancers, I receive a few emails yesterday pointing out a typo. The Benefit is on April 25th that Saturday as it shows on the flyer not on April 26th as I stated in the newsletter.
My apologies for any confusion.
Thanks,

SUBJECT: NOTE FROM RACHAEL
M.
I seem to have been having problems sending email to the mailing list
recently, hoping you all receive this ok.
Just a quick note to let you all know about a new dance I released
yesterday - Intermediate level, 64 count, 2 walls. Go Baby Go to track
Don't Upset The rhythm (Go baby go) by the Noisettes.
Script is on my site.
My blog has been updated weekly as well as the Photos page which I added
last month so take a look when you get chance.
If I'm seeing you at LAPD this weekend I look forward to it, if not
hopefully catch up with you on the dancefloor soon.
With love
