On Sunday, August 29 (TOMORROW) we have our end of the month Orlando Newline workshop at the Whirl & Twirl Club. We will begin a little early this month and plan at least 30 minutes of open dance beginning at 12:00 noon before our first teach at 12:30. The workshop will conclude at 5:00PM.

We will teach the following dances:

SMOOTH CRIMINAL by Barry Porter and Paul Hulatt (pop); Revival of a great oldie to a classic Michael Jackson track! Our gang wants to know more of these late-night classic dances and this is a good one!

EMOTIONS by Kate Sala (Waltz-quick); Sultry and smoldering attitude marks this Joss Stone track that provides the impatient energy behind this quick waltz that will remind you of The Smell of Your Sweet Perfume. This one has not gotten much notice yet, but it is a beautiful dance and you will love the track!

BURN IT DOWN by Neville Fitzgerald and Julie Harris (Funky); Kicking funky beat and cool moves--classic N&J; Love it! One of two N&J dances that we are doing right now!

PACK UP by Craig Bennett (Pop) Steps seems simple but beat is "peppy"! This dance and the song will make you smile! A little departure from Craig's recent fare that points up his talent and versatility! A real feel-good dance.
We will take your requests between lessons all afternoon. All intermediate dancers in our area are invited to
come and join us! More Info on my website: www.spreadyourwingsanddance.com

Hello Everyone!

I appreciate all the responses I have received since my previous request to help us out at Windy City this October on our crews....both for the floors and the registration desk.

However, we are still in need of some help both on the desk and floors....especially, the floor crew so I thought I may try one more request for volunteers.

If anyone would like to help us out this year, please contact me.....

Thank you and see you in October in Chicago!

SUBJECT: DANCES THIS WEEK
FROM: BIG DAVE

World Masters was still a big influence on my teaches this week - Especially after not having any classes last week because of a limpy foot !! :-(

At our Social last Saturday though I did catch up with early-bird teaches of Kate's Drip Droppin & her lovely waltz Emotions too - Also Rachael's nice country one I Run To You - Plus a half time teach of Rob's lovely yet easy Wonderland Waltz ........... So I did all these in the classes on Tuesday/Wednesday this week - Revision from Saturday for most.

With the beginners we did a dance Shaz recommended to me from the Masters choreography competition - Already enjoying the winner It's A Replay - And this one, a nice smooth one called A Star In Heaven (Rebecca Armstrong), was also well received - A cool track - And an easy dance that gives great practice with lots of basic moves plus an easy restart too - Other recent teaches going well include Rep's Tampico Bay, a lovely cha cha & P&A's Don't Give A Blank, great rockin' country.

A new dance for Tuesday was Kath Dicken's Nightshift - A great Dr. Victor beaty pop track & a cool flowing mainstream dance - A big hit with the class, so I decided to teach it on Wednesday too where it was equally well received .................. I also had Jo/John/Mark's Night Work ready to teach for the Wednesday class, but that plan was wrecked because I forgot to put the track on my class computer !!! :-( ..... So that will be next weeks new one now - Looking forward to seeing Craig & Dee's new ones at Swindon on Sunday.

Revision this week included Pack Up, Plan B, Can't Touch, Gypsy Rosa Li & Make Your Sweat amongst others - Hot Hot Hot is a big hit with the Wednesday class - Also Rachel's Snap Your Fingers & Michele's lovely Zenyatta's Waltz.

This week we also had a Newline workshop on Thursday evening - The Tues/Wed late-birds get together for one of these every other month - This time our classic was Let Me Love You - And three great new ones - A funky Let Me C It & Rachael's cool new West Coast Cyclone - Both big World Masters hits - Plus Shaz's new one Sacred Places - A West Coast come Night Club smooth one, which everyone really enjoyed too - A busy but fun night - We also recapped Debbie's Be Back Soon & Paul's Haunted - I was chuffed at my own 'fat boy' version of Let Me C It !!!! :-) - Just love the track :-)

Looking forward to Port Talbot with MaggieG next weekend - Cya there if you are going :-) ....... Then not long to Leeds !!! :-)

Cheers.
