Last Friday was Valentine’s Day. There was plenty of red to be seen at the club and at coffee break, plenty of cake to be eaten.
Of course there were those who didn’t get the message about wearing red, like the guy on the left in the picture below. The lady beside him tells me she had definitely reminded him. He says that she reminded him 10 minutes before he went to get dressed so he forgot. Any men reading this will certainly understand where he’s coming from.
That’s Lyn behind practicing a dance move in her Valentine’s skirt.
Thanks to Pat I. for the photos.
Although our numbers are down significantly with folks on vacation, we have learned a couple of new dances. A phase 4 Cha “Little Spanish Town” taught by Ziggy & Jenny and a beautiful phase 4 slow two step, ” Wake Up Dancin’ “ by Sue & Doug. Both these dances are on “Dropbox”. Look for “Spanish Town” in the 2019 Swing Into Spring folder. We’ve also been honing our skills reviewing some difficult moves from dances we’ve learned previously thanks to John & Marg.
Another recent addition to Dropbox is “Besame Mucho”. This dance video previously had terrible audio and the cuing was extremely hard to hear and understand. I’ve been able to match Donna’s cuing to the video so it’s much more useful now.
A reminder to be sure and check your email before leaving for dance, especially if the weather looks dubious, to see if dance is cancelled. I’ll also endeavour to add a notice to the website as well.
Spring is hopefully just around the corner.
Valentine’s Day is next Thursday! Pat has produced dance programs for both Monday and Thursday with more of a romantic theme. Time to dig into your wardrobe for a red item to wear. Both days are “no teach days” so we’ll be dancing a little more than usual. Programs for both days are now available under the “Dance Season” menu on this website.
