A Year Has Passed We Have Dances A Lots




A Year Has Passed We Have Dances A Lots

It has been a year since we started the blog and face book page ( same name ) and I will show you how I keep track of the dances we have done over the last year, they are some dances we learn before the blog started but we have had walk-through's at some point this year I was amazed and I keep the records, I think this is why it can be hard the retain the dances in your head or that you need to go to YouTube and just have a look at the dance again. I could copy and paste a long list into the blog but that would be long winded  so I have made 6 screen grab  pictures from A to Z there are areas which are blank that's because we haven't had a dance that starts with that letter.



As you can see they is a lot that we have done and each week or may be every two weeks we have one or two more to a always growing list. Other dances we did was Mona Lisa , and Boat To Liverpool see video below, and one we haven't done for a while Sunny In Seattle


Not A new Dance  but one I hadn't heard of.

The dance is Amazing Faith By Rob Fowler I honestly don't know what to make to the  dance but here is is.

How Do You Learn a Dance


How Do You Learn a Dance

How do you learn a dance it is interesting how different people learn a  new dance and how some people are just naturally good at teaching other people to do a dance, I do look at the dance script but I will follow the walk-through on YouTube. But even they are the dances that seem hard to do even with walk-though's on YouTube. But when you go to class and Margaret  ( our Instructor ) does her walks-though, to the same dance that you have been struggling with and Margaret's way is  much easier than the one on YouTube that is a great skill to have. At a personal level I have taught friends dances, and I have to say  it's not easy, so the likes of Margaret and Helen and all the other Instructors I for one take my hat off to you all.



New Dances This Week

The first dance The Boat To Liverpool this is the one that so many of us have had the problem with the heel cross, heel hook, heel flick , scuff, hitch cross, I like this dance and once we can do it  I think it will be fine.



Dance Script


The other dance this called Mona Lisa I like this dance but again the are some moves that you need to work at because to me I find it trick in the step kickball step kickball then heel and heel, I can do it but I have to work at it.
