Teaching “Midnight Waltz” Tonight
Midnight Waltz…
No, we won’t be learning this at midnight! LOL
The class is at its regular time — 6pm! “Midnight Waltz” is the name of the DANCE!
It is choreographed by Jo Thompson Szymanski. This dance is a class that has been around for a long time.
This is a wonderfully choreographed waltz with lots of fundamental Waltz Steps in the pattern. If you have ever done any COUPLES waltzing, then you will instantly recognize the footwork. Which means that this line dance is an awesome practice tool for GASP couples dancers! So whatcherwaitinfer?
Come on out tonight! See ya in class! The music I’ve chosen is the one in this video. It can be done to any speed of waltz. The faster the music, the more difficult it becomes. For tonight (because Tony is worn out from a lot of dancing this past weekend) we are doing it to a slow song!
Here’s the music for the dance: Their Hearts Are Dancing / by the Forester Sisters (Preview it for free or download it from Amazon)

The fun continues this week. Tonight Tue, July 19th at 6pm! Woot!
I’ve got a fun dance lined up for you. It is upbeat and I dare ya not to do a little chair dancing when you hear the music.
The dance is called “Move that Groove / choreographed by Tina Argyle.” There are lots of “East Coast Swing” type steps in it so it’s a great dance to practice your East Coast Technique. It is fun. It is easy! And it’s FUN!
It is also one of the Newcomer Division Competition Line Dances for UCWDC. So if you’re thinking of competing in Line Dance there here is your chance to learn one of the entry level dances! 🙂

This week: learn a line dance classic! “Hideaway Cha!”
Blast from the Past this Week: “Hideaway Cha”
One of the things as a line dancer that I find most frustrating is finding a place and time to learn the “oldie but goodie” dances.
You know the ones that I’m talking about? Dances that are “classics” that all the other dancers seem to know but are never taught anywhere?
Well, I made a promise to myself that when I began teaching dance that periodically I would teach “older” dances. That way, new folks would have a chance to learn them and dancers who have been around for a while would have a chance to re-learn them if they’ve gotten a bit rusty on one or two steps…
So… [drum roll please] I present to you this week’s dance: Hideaway Cha!
Here is a demo of the dance:
Dance: Hideaway Cha
Choreographers: Joanne Brady, Jamie Marshall & Jo Thompson Szymanski
Info: 32 Count / 4 Wall / Easy “Low” Intermediate
Music: Dance With Me / by Debelah Morgan
