Paradise Dance Festival + 2009 WCS Club Jack & Jill

     Paradise Dance Festival (Pomona, Oct. 16-19) is just around the corner and I am really looking forward to it. Paradise, helmed by Barb DeLay, Karen Crabtree and Paradise originator JD Dougherty, offers a great mix of Swing, Country and Line Dancing with workshops, dancing and contests in all three areas. I highly recommend.

     This year’s ticket will also include TWO buffet meals with the event pass – that mean two meals you don’t have to bring yourself from home (cold squished sandwich, anyone?) or two over-priced restaurant meals you’d have to buy elsewhere, so that’s a great deal. And, if you do the J&J competing thing, make sure you check out B&K’s J&J club contest with different qualifying rounds around town this month leading up to the finals at the event, and they have some awesome prizes, too! Visit www.magicdanceproductions.com/paradisecountrydance.html for info on the event and club challenge.

Giant Twister Game @ Paradise: DanceChatter Needs YOU!
     Going to the Paradise Dance Festival next month? Trish Connery & DanceChatter.Com needs volunteers to help create a Giant Twister Game and Booth for the event. Help me design and create the giant mat and spin board for this fun carnival game and work the DanceChatter Giant Twister Booth as part of the event’s Margaritaville Carnival on Saturday, October 17th.  This will be loads of fun, we’ll act as “barkers” to draw people in, run the games, hand out silly/funny prizes. Are you inspired yet??? Call or e-mail Trish if you can help.

Two Opportunities for Pro/Am
      David and I will be at the Paradise Dance Festival (Oct 16-18, Pomona) and the New Year’s Dance Camp (Dec 31-Jan 3, Palm Springs). If you are interested in competing in Contemporary Pro/Am at either event (West Coast Swing, Nightclub, Cha Cha, Hustle, Salsa), talk to Trish and let’s get busy!!

New Year’s Dance Camp Tickets
     I am now actively selling tickets for the DanceChatter.Com Group going to Jay Byam’s New Year’s Dance Camp in Palm Springs.

     For those of you who joined the DanceChatter.Com Group at last year’s event, you know what a great time it was – We had 40 people in our group, the cocktail party was incredible, the sit-down dinner was awesome (check out all the beautiful people in our group!), and of course, the weekend was so much fun for everyone.

     Tickets are $185 for a full-event pass including New Year’s Eve dinner and party ($135 for just the event pass, dinner NOT included). Not to brag or anything but my tables will sell out, so if you want to be with Trish and David and the AbFab DanceChatter group at New Year’s, which includes our DanceChatter.Com Cocktail Party and sitting with our group for the big gala dinner, you’d better get your registration in to me ASAP!

Help Find David Gimelfarb
      David Gimelfarb is a 28 year-old grad student from Chicago. Last month he went on vacation to Costa Rica and disappeared on August 11th while hiking at a Costa Rican national park. No one has seen or heard from him since. 

     David's friends and family are reaching out to anyone/everyone to spread the word about this missing American and do everything possible to bring this young man home. There are three areas of focus in this regard: 1) Keep this story in the media spotlight – that means do anything/everything you can to talk about the story, create media events, and keep the story fresh in the public’s mind; 2) Contact your elected representatives, ask that they contact the State Department to bring pressure to bear on the government of Costa Rica to allow the US, specifically the FBI, into the country to help investigate the disappearance. As of right now the US government cannot intercede unless the Costa Rican government requests it. Let’s make them request it. Do you know anyone in Costa Rica who could contact the CR government? Can you write the Costa Rican embassy in the US? 3) Join the Help Find David Gimelfarb group on Facebook to show your support, to donate to the rescue fund, find out how to contact your representatives, and to get updates on what’s going on in the case.

     Do an internet search for David Gimelfarb to see the different news articles about the case. You can also visit the Facebook group created by David’s friends: Find David Gimelfarb, for more details on the story, to find out how to contact your representatives, updates, etc.

     David is the nephew of one of my students, which is how I heard the story. I joined the 'Find David Gimelfarb' group on Facebook, shared the info on my Facebook wall, posted it on Rec.Arts.Dance, wrote my Congressman and Senator, donated to the Rescue Fund, and am trying to think of other ways to get the word out. Any help you can give in getting the word out too would be greatly appreciated.

Dance Family Studio: THE Place to Be This Saturday, August 29

WCS Bootcamp + 5th Saturday Dance

     This Saturday August 29th the one and only place to be is at the Dance Family Studio in Pasadena. Owners Francisco and Stacey Martinez are putting on an all day West Coast Swing Bootcamp for WCS’ers of all levels featuring me, me, me, LOL… oh, yes and the great Jay Byam as well as DFS’s staff pro, Sue Dragoo. Check out the website for the schedule AND to register beforehand to get the best prices www.thedancefamily.com/frames/Bootcamp_Swing.html

     So it’s Saturday, you’ve taken the workshops, you’ve learned your cool stuff and now you need to stick around for Jay Byam’s 5th Saturday Dance at the studio to practice all your new dance skills, also featuring me, me, me, LOL. Intermediate WCS workshop at 7:00 pm, open dancing with the totally awesome DJE3 Erica Lyons and of course your host Jay Byam. $10 cover.

     It all happens this Saturday at the Dance Family Studio in Pasadena (25 N. Allen St. @ Colorado, Pasadena 91106). No reason to be any place else, see you there!

Say Hello to Johnny Polonco; Say Goodbye to Sizzlin’ Salsa 

Last Night For Sizzlin’ Summer Salsa @ Autry Center August 27th

     I am both excited and sad this week. Excited ‘cause this coming Thursday, August 27 one of my favorite-est (which is favorite and then some, LOL) Salsa bands, Johnny Polonco, is playing at the Autry Center’s Sizzlin’ Summer Nights. The sad comes in when I realize that this is the last Salsa night of the summer. We expect anywhere from 700-800 people on this last and final night of this two-month long annual series and the dancing and music should be off the chart hot, hot, hot. I can’t wait to see and dance to Johnny and his band, and at the same time, I don’t want it to end. If you haven’t checked out Salsa at the Autry yet, this is the week to do it, you won’t regret it.

     Autry National Center, 4700 Western Heritage Way, Los Angeles (right across from the LA Zoo at Griffith Park), www.autrynationalcenter.org.

Paradise Dance Festival + 2009 Club Challenge Jack & Jill

     While at Montana’s on Saturday David and I ran into event directors Barb DeLay and Karen Crabtree who helm up the upcoming Paradise Dance Festival (Pomona, Oct. 16-19) as well as  Los Angeles Premier Dance Classic (April 2010, LAX). Paradise is the best of both Swing and Country when it comes to merging their respecti r workshops, dancing and competitive worlds, I highly recommend.

     Barb also told me that this year’s ticket will also include TWO buffet meals with the event pass – that mean two meals you don’t have to bring yourself from home (cold squished sandwich, anyone?) or two over-priced restaurant meals you’d have to buy elsewhere, so that’s a great deal.

     And, if you do the J&J competing thing, make sure you check out B&K’s J&J club contest with different qualifying rounds around town this month and next leading up to the finals at the event, and they have some awesome prizes, too! Check out the list of qualifying events and make sure you attend Paradise!

DanceChatter Newsletter 8-24-09: Part 1

DanceChatter Newsletter; Missing in Action

     I know, I know, it’s been a couple of weeks since I’ve sent out an e-mail, I hope y’all forgive me. My schedule has been pretty packed to say the least. As you may know I started Salsa classes at the Burbank Moose Lodge (BML) on Wednesday nights, and the Tuesday night West Coast Swing and Country 2-Step classes, also at the BML, continue to flourish (good word, flourish), and of course WCS & Ballroom Sundays at the Hacienda. Jay Byam’s Summer Dance Camp in Palm Springs at the beginning of August was a hoot, we had over 20 people packed into our hotel room on Friday night of the event for our traditional DanceChatter.Com Cocktail Party. I’m so glad that so many of “my” people came with us and had such a good time. For some it was their first event and they thoroughly enjoyed it as did everyone.

     Over the years I’ve noticed that my focus at conventions has changed somewhat. It used to be that I was the stay-up-late-and-dance ‘til all hours girl. Now it seems that between work and teaching and life, I’m so busy all the time that when I make it out to a convention I lean more toward rest and relaxation or should I say collapse and coma, LOL (once I get my teaching and judging obligations out of the way, that is). I know you wouldn’t think it but sometimes conventions are the only quiet time I seem to have – kind of like going to the movies to take a nap (which I’ve also done, LOL). Is that a good thing? Or just plain sad?? At any rate, whether we were resting or dancing or just hanging out together, Summer Dance Camp was a lot of fun, as always. And, just throwing this out there, speaking of Jay Byam’s events, folks are already asking to be part of the DanceChatter Group for New Year’s Dance Camp, my tables WILL sell out (they always do), so keep that in mind, NYDC is only four months away!

     In other news, my mother, Mary Kathryn, was out for a brief visit a few weeks ago, some of you in the Tuesday and Wednesday night classes at the BML got a chance to meet her. She and her husband Lowell will be joining David and I our CruiseFest Swing Dance Cruise coming up in September (only 28 days away!), can’t wait for that. I had a couple of great weekends down in San Diego but my weekends tend to be really short as I always head back to LA on Sunday in order to teach. Speaking of teaching on Sunday, I want to mention the DanceChatter Performance Class which practices on Sundays. I want to give them a shout-out (David, Elaine, Jon, Diana, Scott, Rochelle, Eric, Susan, Dennis, Denise, Brian, Alice) for being such good troopers. We are putting the final touches on our routine and will be putting it out there on the floor in the not-too-distant future; I am so very proud of them.

      This past Friday night David and I headed out to do some ballroom dancing at the Glendale Moose Lodge. Janet E who attends Tuesday night classes at the BML told me about their regular Friday night dances and we decided to check it out. Beautiful facility, gorgeous floor very nice people and a wide variety of DJ music – Waltz’s, Cha’s, Tango’s, Foxtrot, even a few Hustles, WCS’s and a Country 2-Step thrown in. We were a little too tired to make a late night of it, but it was a perfect blend of dancing and socializing. Thanks, Janet, for passing on the info and for saving us seats, and thanks to the GML and dancers for such a good time!

     Saturday we shirked the dance practice we should have in order to run errands. While on the computer that day I posted something about fixing our Saturday morning coffee on Facebook. The power of social networking sites still takes me by surprise sometimes, ‘cause later that same night when we hit Montana’s in San Dimas for some hot Country 2-Step, at least five people came up to me and said “Hey, how was that coffee?” LOL. Thanks to the awesome dancers who gave me such awesome 2-Steps (David [of course], Ari, Alan C, Woody W, Dean S, Tom H, Chuck), you guys were great!

Happy Birthday, Steve F!

SALSERA CHRISTINA HAGGERTY

     Back before I barely dipped my toe in the Salsa pool I had seen the name Christina Haggerty advertised at the Salsa venues but at the time didn’t know who she was. I always remembered the name though because it so closely resembled that of Kris Hagerty who used to partner, teach and dance with WCS’er Sonny Watson. Remember those days? Tuesday nights at the Crest in Reseda, Sunday classes with Sonny and Kris, the SwingShift dance team?

     Swing dancer Kris dropped out of the dance scene long ago but Salsera Christina Haggerty is very much present and over the SoCal Salsa Scene. She’s got agazillion projects going on all at once including Jay Byam’s Salsa Extravaganza (Aug 15-17, Palm Springs) not to mention Salsa and Cha Cha classes all over town. Plus, she’s got fierce Salsa leading skills, something you know I totally respect. Check out her website for a list of classes, dances, workshops and more: www.mikechristina.com 

CRUISEFEST SWING DANCE CRUISE

Sept. 20-27, 2009

     Only 43 more days until I prop my feel up on a railing overlooking the Pacific Ocean as I cruise off the Mexican Riviera, sipping my drinky-drink and finally able to sit down and relax. If I'm out at sea then I can't go back and do "one last thing," now can I? There's something to be said for forced vacation, LOL, so I am counting the days until I can  dance with my honey and all my dance friends, the pros, the event organizers, the students and cruise goers, and I love, love, love the thought of dancing and teaching at sea, too cool. I'm even thinking about upgrading to one of those fancy outside private balcony cabins, how oooh-la-la can you get? Can’t you just picture it now???

     Sign up to through Trish Connery and DanceChatter.Com to join this cruise and get special DanceChatter cruise perks (the DanceChatter (in)FamousCocktail Party + Free 30-Minute Private Lessons), take advantage of dance classes with top pros (Trish Connery & David Walkup, Ben & Melina, Martin Parker, Patti Jobst, Skippy Blair, Kelly Casanova), dance parties and special shore excursions specifically designed for our dance group (including stops in Mazatlan, Cabo San Lucas, and Puerto Vallarta).

MASSAGE THERAPIST PONCE AT SUMMER DANCE CAMP

This Weekend: August 6-9, 2009

     Dancer and massage therapist Christina Ponce will be attending the Palm Springs Summer Dance Camp this weekend.

Call or e-mail Christina directly to book: 714-588-3363

NO HACIENDA CLASSES THIS SUNDAY, AUGUST 9TH

     I will be in Palm Springs this weekend at Summer Dance Camp, so NO CLASSES at Hacienda this Sunday, August 9th. See you back in class on Sunday, August 16th. 

PALM SPRINGS SUMMER DANCE CAMP

This Weekend: August 6-9, 2009

     Ain’t no other place to be this weekend but Jay Byam’s Palm Springs Summer Dance Camp. Word. Sorry, just went Oklahoma Street on y’all but I’m back now.

     Seriously though, Jay’s annual summer event is so much fun, it’s something that everyone should experience at least once and ideally attend every year thereafter.

     David and I are hosting the DanceChatter Cocktail Party on Friday evening August 7th (for  VIP guests, those who bought their SDC tix through me and for DanceChatter.Com Performance Class members). On Saturday, August 8th I have two workshops: a 12:00 noon Beginning Level Romantic Nightclub workshop and a 3:00 pm Beginning Level Hustle workshop, come see me in class! Also, throughout the entire weekend I am once again proud to participate in the event’s Beginner Private Lesson Program (Tell your newbie dance friends about this, it’s a GREAT way for beginning dancers to take advantage of private lessons with select teachers at a discounted price).

     Speaking of beginners, DanceMeister Jay B is the only event director I know of that offers a dedicated Beginner Bootcamp Workshop room all weekend long (every class taught in that room is beginning in level), but also the discounted private lesson program for beginners as well.  It’s a great way to induct your friends and family into the addiction, I mean, joy of dancing!

     See you in Palm Springs! www.peoplewhodance.net

Each 6-Week Series features a different  Ballroom Dance!

This 6-Week Series will feature AMERICAN TANGO

5:00 pm  - Ballroom: Beginning American Tango (Level 1/2)

     American Tango was introduced in the United States in the 1940's as a simplified and “sanitary” (ie, considered less and vulgar) version of the Argentine Tango which originated in the brothels of Buenos Aires.

     Tango, with its “Tango Walks,” Cortes, quick foot flicks and sharp head movements, is beautiful and dramatic. American Tango is known as the simplest of all the Tangos and also the showiest. Danced correctly, American Tango can be just as dramatic and compelling as its Argentine cousin.

Hello, everyone!

I am out of town this coming weekend, celebrating the birthday of the very fabulous David Walkup. We have plans for a hot air balloon ride, a limo-driven tour of local Temecula wineries, dinner and dancing, what a great way to celebrate such a special day! 

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, despite my absence THERE WILL BE CLASS ON SUNDAY, JUNE 21ST!

The very capable Mike Kluck will be subbing for all four Sunday classes, EVEN the 5:00 pm American Tango class.

In addition to all of Mike's WCS experience, he's also been taking AND teaching Ballroom at the new You Can Dance Studio in Hermosa Beach (remember that great dance party a few weeks ago?), so you will be in very capable hands (you know I wouldn't leave you with just anyone, LOL). 

Brian P will be working the registration desk as usual so you will see his familiar face. Have a great day and enjoy Mike Kluck!

It is with sadness that I announce Wednesday, May 27th as my last night teaching a weekly class at Family Dance Studio in Pasadena. Earlier this year when I was asked to come on board by owners Francisco and Stacey Martinez I was very excited but we all knew logistics might not work out long-term (plans on paper don't always work out in real life, LOL. After two months of trying to fit the weekly drive into my schedule, it has become clear that it's best to discontinue the classes. Nonetheless, I want to thank Francisco and Stacey for the opportunity, I have nothing but the utmost respect for them and for the staff at Dance Family Studio, and the students are WONDERFUL. And, even though I won't be there on Wednesday nights anymore, I hope to see you all at the West Coast Swing Bootcamp sponsored by DFS this coming
Saturday, May 30th (see below for details).
