MONDAY, 9/12  I'M BAAAAACCCCCKKKK.  I didn't want to advertise that I was going to be out of town since there is so much info on the internet but I was at WOW in my old stomping grounds in San Francisco.  I'll tell you all about it but I had a great time.  This had to be held in the most beautiful hotel I have ever attended a line dance event, right on the bay with couches outside the huge, gorgeous lobby area.  It was so nice meeting so many people I've talked with online but who don't come to East Coast events (and there are a LOT OF PEOPLE who don't travel across the country to events and we'll just have to do something about that!!)  Thanks, Judy, for outdoing yourself and giving us such a spectacular weekend.  WOW next year with be in Taiwan so mark your calendars.   I'll TRY to get the report done today and tomorrow and I took a ton of pictures.

The popular line dance rhythms that will be covered are east coast swing, cha, country cha (aka social cha), two step, waltz, and nightclub two step. During the workshop, you will learn a basic dance in each of the rhythms, as you learn how to identify those rhythms in music, and practice matching those basic dances with various songs.
 
The evening dance will include all-request open dancing and an improver level line dance lesson, too.

SUBJECT:  WHAT GEOFF AND CELIA ARE TEACHING IN THE UK
 
Week comm. September 5th
 
Very quiet night at our Monday class at Shipley Club. In the first
half of the evening taught “MY PRETTY BELINDA” (Vikki Morris), seemed
to go down well with the few that were there. As we hadn’t had a class
last week we had 2 dances to teach in the second half  to keep up with
our Wednesday class and they both received a great response from the
class. They were “LOVE 2 DANCE” (Simon Ward & Niels Poulsen) &
“ALABAMA SLAMMIN” (Rachael McEnaney). Did quite a lot more floor
splits which all seemed to work very well. At the end of the night
just for a bit of fun showed them “THE WOBBLE” everybody got up and
joined in, what a laugh !!
 
Playlist for the night was :- Bosa Nova, Wishful Thinking, Hello
Dolly, Tennessee Waltz Surprise, Vertical Expressions, Pretty Belinda,
Haba Haba, Pot of Gold / Country Walking (split floor), Telling The
World / This & That (split floor), Party Freak / Stroll Along Cha
(split floor), Something In The Water, I Am A Good Girl, 1-2-3-4, I’m
No Good / Little Red Book (split floor), On The Edge / Black Coffee
(split floor), Soul Food, Come Dance With Me, Alabama Slammin’, Close
To Paradise, Not Drunk Enough, Love 2 Dance, No Scandal, Dr Flame, My
Motivation, Beyond Your Eyes & The Wobble.
 
On Wednesday at Saltaire our new dance for the night was “HITCHED”
choreographed by David Spencer aka “Speno” to the Bruno Mars track
“Marry You”, a 64 count 4 wall dance with one restart on wall 4 facing
the 12 o’clock wall. Although it’s quite a fast dance thought this
would be an easy teach but they seemed to have some problem with the
turning rumba boxes near the end but we got there in the end. Had read
and heard good reports about this dance which had been taught at
Graham & Kathy’s class the previous week and certainly didn’t
disappoint at ours with everyone on the floor all three times we
danced it. Recapped last week’s dance “LOVE 2 DANCE” (Simon Ward &
Niels Poulsen) another dance that looks like being a hit with our
dancers with just a few sitting it out who aren’t too keen on the
music.. Also recapped “ALABAMA SLAMMIN” (Rachael McEnaney) going well
with the majority and “MY MOTIVATION” (Guyton Mundy)  probably the
Number One dance at our class at the moment. A few struggled with “NOT
DRUNK ENOUGH” (Shaz Walton) so will have to make sure we go through
that again with them next week.
 
Playlist was :- Rhyme Or Reason, Plan B, Upside Down, Burlesque, Only
Girl, Drip Droppin’, I’m No Good, Unpredictable, Amame, Sunset Mambo,
No Scandal, Dr Flame, The Flute, Soul Food, Close To Paradise, Hitched
(twice), Haba Haba, Love 2 Dance, Devotion, My Motivation, Party
Freak, Beyond Your Eyes, Alabama Slammin’, Not Drunk Enough, Hitched
(again), On The Edge, Telling the World & All Of Me.

Subject: WDI Survey Reminder for August 2011
 
 
This is a reminder to respond to the World Dance Instruction survey (WDI) for August. Please submit the dances taught in your area by September 20. I will then compile a database of dances taught by state, province or country and send it out to my mailing list.
 
Send a list of dances taught, the choreographer(s) and the location they were taught. If a dance has been taught at more than one venue, it can be listed with the number of times you taught it. Please don't use parentheses in your lists. For those of you who compile lists, please mark with an asterisk each time choreographers teach their own dances.
 
The correct format follows:
Dizzy;JoThompson;MI
Jose Cuervo;Max Perry;TX-2
 
If you would like to be added to my mailing list or if you would like to know to which address to send your dances, please send an e-mail to Lnda...@aol.com
 
Please document the number of instructors that are covered in your submission. If I get a single email, I assume one or if there are two names on it, I assume two.
 
Please put an asterisk by any dances that are taught by the choreographer.
 
The following people gather information for the survey. If your area is not on the list, please email your results to me at LnDa...@aol.com. If you are willing to compile lists for an area that is not currently served, please let me know. You don't have to be the instructor to send me the list.

SUBJECT:  DANCES THIS WEEK
FROM:  BIG DAVE
 
Nothing new (for me) with the Tuesday class, but I did share Niels's Melon Heart cha with the main class & Kate's smootth west coast Love On Top with the late-birds, dances well received at the Wednesday class.
A few new beginners so back to basics for a while, then recaps of Open Book, Back In Time, Skinny Jeans & A Little Love Worth Waiting 4 - Then Crazy Girl, Midnight Mix, Not Without Us & Purr Kitty with the Improvers all going well. Dances going well in the main class include Mr. Saxobeat, Haba Haba, Love 2 Dance, La Luna, Move A Like & The Stomp - A quick recap of On the Edge too.
 
Wednesday was inspired by our Scaroborough weekend with Maggie & Dee which was great fun, with some of the class there, requesting me to bring back the new ones - So with the early-birds we did Dee's cool new pop one Make It Hot & Maggie's nightclub If You Were Mine - And in the main class Maggie's new intermediate mainstream pop one Celebrate - All well received at Scarborough & with the rest of the Wednesday class too - Sorry no sheets for Maggie's dances just yet - Soon hopefully (If you write me I'll put you on my mailing list for them).
 
We just practiced Monster In The Mirror to finish off with the late-birds, because we had a big revision night Thursday which we do every couple of months - In that I taught Joey's Descarada - This was more for me really as I'd not done it & most of the gang had taught it themselves !!! :-) - Also by request a classic Poetry In Motion - The rest of the night lots of revision including Throw The Dice, That Kinda Lovin' & Show Me The Love - A few more on the recap list for the 2 remaining late-bird Wednesdays before Newline :-)
 
A couple of weekends off for us - Final preparations for Newcastle Newline - And awaiting our 2nd grandson due a week on Monday :-)
 
Cheers.

Subject:  Using the Internet to Promote Linedancing.  Melva Gail Smith   Louisville, KY Me...@netscape.com
 
I was reading the post about how when the Internet came along, it was suppose to pull everyone together that linedanced.  Just last month I wrote an article about a website that promotes dancing in a very creative way.  While the article itself is about ballroom dancing I think it might be food for thought for linedancing as well. At one of the two sites mentioned in it there is information about an instructor who pretty much saved his business by using it and it continues to feed students in his direction.
 
Hope this helps someone,
Melva
 
At 85,000 Visitors A Month, AccessDance Network Draws Attention To Ballroom Dance.
Once in a while I run into a dance site that is so impressive and beneficial that it must be shared with our readers. Providing the latest in technology to the dance industry, the AccessDance Network found at accessdance.com, is one of those sites.
"The mission of the network is to use the Internet to get the everyday person involved in ballroom dancing," said Ben Moseley, President of Dance Notions LLC, and owner of the AccessDance Network. "We consult and develop the websites for a number of organizations in the industry, and one of them is USA Dance Inc. We build the website for USADance.org." he said.
So how does the network operate? Ben compares it to Dancing With The Stars. "Think of Dancing with the Stars on TV. The end product, the show itself; is the culmination of work by a group of professionals that input their expert information about choreography and technique to make non-dancers look great on the dance floor. Where they have created a show to entertain and inspire millions on television, we've created a comprehensive resource on the Internet to get people dancing. The site currently receives as many as 85,000 visitors a month, giving a tremendous amount of exposure to its members and having the potential to add a lot more dancers to communities nationwide." Ben said. Dance organizations, competitions, studios, independent instructors and even chapters of USA Dance that are members of AccessDance, input a wide variety of articles and information on various topics that are then displayed at the AccessDance.com website. These are then put into a large range of categories so that when someone searches the internet for information, it will direct them to the proper page. It is through this list of categories and information that the reader learns about what members have to offer in their local area. This is how many new dancers, who are lost at first; learn about dance opportunities. It is also how members of the network in turn, receive new dancers and grow their business. "It's about empowering them not only to get their information on the Internet, but to get it on AccessDance.com where it can be found! "Ben exclaimed. When someone googles for instance meet new people in Louisville, KY, AccessDance.com currently comes up as #4 directing them to dance opportunities offered by members rather than a never ending list of singles sites.
Once at the site they can visit a variety of places including dance lessons, dance competitions and the learning center. "Our learning center is for people just getting into dance or for those that don't even know that dancing could be a great addition to their life. Right now we have about thirteen major topics, but are already planning to expand." Ben said. One of these topics is Meeting New People, which is one of the most popular reasons people first learn to dance. Other searchable topics include Wedding dance, Health and Exercise, Looking for a New Hobby, Enhancing Your Relationships, Pop Culture, Competition Dancesport and Giving the Gift of Dance.
"The true beauty of AccessDance is that the people contributing this information are the same people who work hard to create ballroom dance activities every day... our members," Ben said. "Our members are the professionals and volunteers who create wonderful ballroom dance experiences for others to enjoy every day. We do our job by building good quality websites that are all members of the AccessDance Network, and our members do their job by creating good quality dance opportunities and experiences, " Ben concluded.
"We are at a point where we need to reach out beyond our website and embrace more of what the Internet has to offer. Marketing and branding ourselves in such places as Facebook and AccessDance will help us build our brand awareness as a national organization and also help us to grow our membership." said Esther Freeman, past president and current treasurer of USA Dance Inc. "We have many goals. Efficiently using the Internet as one of the tools to help us achieve them is an ongoing process. In fact, we have a new "Tech Committee" now to help us evaluate and plan where we are and where we need to take our online projects to reach those goals. AccessDance is one of our options that looks promising." she added.

SUBJECT:  CELEBRATE DANCE!  Toronto, Canada
FROM:  Vivienne Scott
 
Hi everyone:
 
This past weekend dancers from Ontario and further afield remembered Carmen Mah by Celebrating Dance at a 3 day event organized by her husband Robert Mah.   Carmen passed away last year at the age of 54.   Carmen loved to go to events across Canada and the US and I'm sure many of you will remember her.   Carmen was a dedicated instructor but more than anything just loved to dance and she rarely sat down.  The event was a most appropriate tribute to her and I'm sure she would have loved it.   Robert did an excellent job of organizing the event down to making his own dance floors.  He invited some of Carmen's favourite international instructors/choreographers including Scott Blevins, Rachael McEnaney, John Robinson, Joanne Brady, Amy Christian-Sohn and Jennifer Choo Sue Chin (Malaysia).  Gerard Murphy and Michele Perron flew in from across Canada and local instructors/choreographers included Judy McDonald, Double Trouble, Donna Laurin, Zandra McCallum and I was honoured to also be invited. 
 
A report and photos are now up on my website  www.stayinline.ca   I have also included the dances taught together with the levels. 
 
Happy dancin' to all!
