Mundesley weekend
Just back from a line dance weekend in Mundesley, Norfolk. Maggie G taught Something Good, Quitter, her waltz called Loving U (Not Like Loving You by Nell Bryden) and a brand new dance that was still work in progress so no step sheet yet to a Gabriella Cilmi track called Invisible Girl – think along the lines of Womaniser and you get a rough idea of it.
Jo and John Kinser taught I Want That Man to the Deborah Harry track of the same name and Rah-Rah Ooh La La to Lady Gaga’s Bad Romance. They were also starting to teach a 3rd dance as we left for home on the Sunday.
Big Dave quickly covered a few dances during lunch breaks and at the end of one or two sessions. He taught Faith & Desire, Ooh Ruby and Get On Down. He was also DJ for the weekend along with Andrew Palmer who did a session on Saturday night.
Overall a good weekend with a mix of newer dances and classics.
Burgh le Marsh (Skegness) August 2010
Jane has kindly asked me to teach at her 2nd annual all day event in August 2010, this time alongside Robbie McGowan Hickie. Full details SEE BELOW…
Dances Taught at Extra Class – 03/04/10
Here’s the dances I taught at the latest extra class at Canwick Village Hall on Saturday, 3rd April 2010.
SUGAR CANDY (Neville Fitzgerald & Julie Harris) A 64 count 4 wall easy intermediate dance to a funky sort of reggae style track. It opens with a bit of a rap but the main song is a reworking of the old Archies hits “Sugar Sugar”.
UNDERCOVER (Robbie McGowan Hickie) One of several new dances from Robbie, I went with this one as its catchy upbeat pop track. 48 counts, 4 walls, 2 restarts and 1 tag but not too hard. Music by Cosmo4 to a track called What’s Your Name.
QUITTER (Maggie Gallagher) Another fastish track but this time to the country sound of Carrie Underwood. 64 count, 4 wall improver level dance that reminds me of the dance called The World from a few years back.
I also recapped a dance from my last Saturday extra class at the end of February – Robbie & Kate’s Upside Down.
Several people said they liked all three dances and I think my own favourite was Undercover. Another good turnout, especially for the Easter weekend so thanks to all who came out. Special thanks to Chris Mellors who kindly agreed to recap an oldie for us – he did a couple of walls of Robbie’s Blue Beyond.
New video added
I’ve just been advised that there is a video of Charlotte (and others) dancing my dance, Pocket Two Step, on youtube. Just click on Lincoln Lonestars Videos on the blue title bar to see it.
