Howdy Folks,
 
We are half way through the year, how fast has it gone? I bet the other half of the year will go even quicker, soon we will all be puting out our flyers for our Christmas socials, scary thought.
 
We have been enjoying some great dances in our classes over the past month. Our Beginners have enjoyed 'God, Beer & Crazy People' by Marilyn Bycroft, the song is, I think one of the best country songs to come out in a while & Marilyn has put a nice easy dance to go with it. Also they have liked doing Audrey Watson's 'The Little Shirt', a cute little Irish jig, that we all sing along to. Another popular dance for our Beginners is a dance called 'Busy Feet' by Barbara Lowe, great catchy song from way back.
 
Next, onto our Easy Intermediate dances & we have been learning some really nice dances, Rachael's 'Bobbi With An I' has been a huge hit, also Kath Dickens' 'San Francisco' has been a big floor filler, great upbeat music & a great dance to go with it.
 
Our Intermediate dancers have been enjoying 'I Want That Man' a huge dance, still filling the floors after almost a month of continuous play. The standout dnace for this month so far would have to be Bill Larson's 'The Perfect Jewel', this is so well choreographed to the music, my classes love it. One that I have only just taught that has gone over very well is Rachael's 'B.C.O.' (Baby Come On), this is very similar to the classis 'Chill Factor' (same singer), the class really get into this one, especially my young kids.
 
I had the opportunity to have a few days break on the last weekend in June, so I headed off to Brisbane to spend a few days with Brett Jenkins. It was nice to spend some time with Brett & to enjoy some warmer weather. We managed to drink lots & eat lots & do the 'touristy' things. I taught my dance 'Flip Flops' at Brett's Friday night class & also at his social at Mitchelton on Saturday night, the dance went over very well. It was also nice to catch up with one of my students Sue Bowley who is holidaying with her husband Phil. There were lots of great dances that I picked up from the floor to bring back to my classes, so look out for these dances to come into my classes soon.
 
That's all for this month, stay safe, plenty of dancing, see you all soon.
 
Daz!!
