danzbuddies Wednesday class - new dances

hi danzbuddies,

For this week, we will be introducing the following dances:

- 'Heads Up' by Teresa & Vera. 64 count, 4 wall, intermediate level with 1 simple tag (end of wall 2) and 1 restart (Wall 5). Good song 'Keeping Your Head Up' by Girls Can't Catch.

- 'Spanish Fly' by Debbie McLaughlin to song of the same name by Eric Benet. 32 count, 4 wall, intermediate level. A nice "8 and 1" cha cha beat dance. Except for the full spin turn at the end, the dance is quite easy to do.....so, dun worry, if you don't fancy doing the full turn - replace it with a "hold" for 1 count, simple as that.

- 'Argentina' another great dance from Maggie Gallagher. 64 count, 4 wall, intermediate level.
Song is 'Don't Cry For Me Argentina'. The version by Generation Pop gives a fast pop beat to the song. You may want to try out some tango 'spanish arms' movements.

Two more dances to be shared on Friday are:

- 'San Francisco Cha' by Kathy Hunyadi. The song "San Francisco' by Scott McKenzie should be familiar to everyone. 32 count, 2 wall, beginner level. A very easy dance, will be no problem for all.

- 'Here With You' a new dance choreographed by our own Celina & Hoe using a Michael Jackson
number - 'You Are Not Alone'. 48 count, 2 wall, intermediate level.

Hi danzbuddies,

Here are the dances we will be sharing for this week:

' 18 Yellow Roses' by Maria Tao. 64 count, 4 wall, Intermediate Level. no tag, no restart. Nice song of the same name by Bobby Prins. We are using the Bobby Darin version. Nice slow rumba-like beat, a nice and enjoyable dance.

'Treat Her Right' by Maggie Gallagher. 48 count, 4 wall, beginner level. no tag no restart. Danced to a cute little number - 'Treat Her Right' by George Thorogood. The beat needs a little getting used to. Dance steps are simple, however. A popular dance at local parties.

'Hot & Hazy' by Patrick Fleming, Bracken Ellis Porter & JP Potter. 32 count, 4 wall, intermediate level. 2 restarts. Nice song 'Never Loved Before' by Alan Jackson & Martina McBride fro the 'Good Times' album. Like the last part - a galloping full turn......

'Here We Go Boogaloo' by Ruben Luna. a three part phrased dance, total of 112 counts for parts A, B and C. Intermediate level. Danced to Soul Control's 'Boogaloo Here We Go', a great song with a fast mambo beat. Hottest dance in town right now.......so, 'die die must do, lah"........

We will also share another one of Jan Wyllie's dances:

'Waltz of the Wind' - 63 count, 2 wall, intermediate level. Nice waltz. Song is 'Mexican Wind' by Jann Browne.
