REPORTS  &  PLAYLISTS

FEBRUARY  2016

February 3rd

A quiet week this week at class, to be honest I could easily have stayed at home myself, full of cold, sore throat and losing my voice, but the show must go on. Had hoped to get some inspiration from the CBA’s for this week’s teach but nearly all the workshops this year were old classics (hope this was a one off just for the 20^th anniversary). Decided to go for Maggie G’s “SAX”, a 64 count, 2 wall intermediate  dance to a track of the same name by Fleur East. It was one that I already knew as did a few of the class but wasn’t in the right frame of mind to start to learn something new. The majority of the class seemed happy with it. Also for a bit of fun decided to teach the new LDF dance “BLACKPOOL BY THE SEA” choreographed by Gaye Teather and sung by Dave Sherrif , the majority again seemed happy with this. Re-capped last week’s dance “TEMPTED” (Fred Whitehouse), not doing as well as I had hoped, also re-caps of “AIN’T MISBEHAVIN’” (Guyton, Jo & Amy) and “SAVE THE DAY” (Karl-Harry Winson), both going down very well with the class and a few quick walls of others when requested.

Playlist was :-  Fly High, Alcazar, I Got It Easy, Your Loving Arms, Wow Tokyo, One Track Mind, Slam Goes The Door, Darling Hold My Hand, Up, Alvaro, Your Place Or Mine, Uptown Funk, Beautiful In My Eyes, Pop ‘n Drop, The Bomp, Blackpool By The Sea, Sax (twice), Tuesday Blues, Black Magic, Tempted, Ain’t Misbehavin’, Save The Day, Second Hand Heart, Won’t Tell A Soul, Better When I’m Dancing & Love Me Like You.

This months Social at Shelf Village Hall is a week earlier than normal and will be on Saturday 13^th February. There’ll be non stop dancing to your requests from 8.00 pm – 11.00 pm, there’s a licensed bar and of course the usual delicious home made buffet supper. Everybody welcome.
