Hi Country Roots Members
Hello line dancers Country Roots is back for the second blog after reopening. Now let's put some dances on the blog. These are the things we are doing at the moment
So Let have a look at some of the dances we are doing are split into Beginner's and Intermediate's
A social was held at the Labour Club Llandudno Junction North Wales. This social night is held on the third Saturday of each month this was the first time I had gone to the dance night, a I had a great night. They had a mixture recorded music and a live band called Kentucky Rain were great they were playing a mix of old and new songs and everybody knew the dances to the songs. Here are just a few of the pictures I took, there will be more on the Country Roots face book page.

The Beginners Class
The beginner's learned a new dance this week called Memphis Love it's a nice beginner/improver dance you either walk in the dance or you can do a full turn the choice is up to the dancer.There is a demo of the dance but no walk-through. the other dance they revisited was Tush Push
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.
We did a nice little Rock & Roll I just happen to like dance that are set to rock and roll and this isn't that hard to learn. The other dance we have been doing but I forgot to put it but better late than never it;s called Walk With Me I would say it easy but once you have learned it you will like it.

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 .
Tell what you think. either via countryrootslineance@gmail.com or Country Roots Line Dance on Facebook.

This is just a quick word about about our blog it is viewed from so many countries around the world it have surprised even me, I have just welcomed the Nashville Line Dance Group onto our facebook page. This tell me the our presence on Goggle is high and ranks us in the first 3 pages. And when you consider there are millions of pages on Goggle that's not bad. And the fact that the site is linked to Twitter and Facebook as well can only help Well that my bragging over. Now to the dances.
The Beginner's Class
The Beginners learned a new dance Lonesome Swing it's a nice little dance not hard by Gary Lafferty. See links below.
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.
The was a new dance called Eternal Secret this is not the easiest dance in the world and the restart is a nightmare to do I do know if it will take off but I will embed the video.

The question is how many dances can you do without having a walk-through it's more than you think it is. I found this out the last time Country Roots Rhyl had a social night. We did dances for 2 year maybe longer and if at the time you like the dance it does stay in the memory banks. Even if it takes 2 walls to sort your feet out. I returned to Line Dancing 6 years ago and I couldn't tell you how many I could do be until I heard the music and then work out the step. of our social night I only sit out a few time so that was pretty good, But Dance Instructors they have a skill to remember dances from 10, or 20 years ago, which is really amazing.
The Beginners Class
The Beginners Class is the same as last week to make sure they understands the new dances they are doing.
The Advance Class have also been doing the same dances as last week mainly because we have had a lot of new dances and we just need some more practice We have got one new dance called New Shade Of Blue By Yvonne Anderson nice dance it flows really nicely.
