A Change Of Heart


A Change Of Heart.

 Over two years ago when I started the website one of the first things I wrote about was the fact that when dancing to live music is not the same as doing the dance in class. And to a point that is still the case. But I was wrong because the joy of live music is finding a dance that would fix the song the singer was doing on stage. I have be to several events lately and have realised that you can do a well know dance to a unknown song it maybe a little faster or slower, and I have realised that is where the skill come in.Well that's enough humble pie I'm full, so we will get on to the dances.

The Beginner's Class

 The Beginners are still leaning Vertical Expression. the other dances in this section are find most of them know the dances reasonable well now. But as I said last week even an old dance to a beginner is a new dance. Here are some of their dances.

       
 After a lot of searching I have found a demo of the Butterfly Waltz it's not in English but the steps are there so it really doesn't matter.

I have put two Waltz Across Texas because the first one gives you a long walk-through and the other one in a good demo.

Vertical Expression | Memphis Love | Tush Push | Haunted HeartCheap Talk | Waltz Across Texas | Shadowlands |Back And Forth | Sea Cruise | Piano Man | Something In The Water | Lonesome Me | Butterfly Waltz





The Advance Class

In the Advance Class we did a new dance called Skip The Line it a nice dance, one of those where you heel hook step out ,touch kick back. I don't normally I don't like those type of dances but this is nice the dance it fits the beat of the music. See that walk through and many others besides.

Do We Need More Partner Dances

As the headline says do we need more partner dances in the classroom, I think it would be nice to do more of them. We nearly always dance on our own,the only partner dance we do is the barn dance ,but some years ago I was at Welshpool country festival and people were doing great partner dances. have  a look at these, I think these dances proves that point
