This year’s Celebration was held on Saturday, Feb. 10 at the Northdale Rec Center in North Tampa. (And for next year, I need to remember that the drive takes just under 3 hours! For a 9:30 start, we don’t need to leave before 6:30am!
Lots of people in attendance - lots of great dancing! We had six of us (Cheri didn’t come along as she was still battling a cold) - Colette (who did all the driving!), Robi, Karen, Kathy, Terry, and I. Jutta and Marie were there as well - along with plenty of dancers that we know from all over Florida.
The classes I took were:
Sheri teaching Ria Vos’ “Tearing Us Apart” (a winnner for everyone who atttended!), Marilyn teaching Gary Lafferty’s “A Thousand Stars”, Andrew & Sheila Palmer’s “Sleepy Eyes”, and Maggie Gallagher’s “Tightrope”. A Thousand Stars and Sleepy Eyes will work well for Thursday. Tightrope is an awesome waltz! I peeked in on Lynda Licht’s teach of “Perfect” to make sure I was doing it right - only to break her concentration and had to help her out of a counting jam... and then attended Lynda’s teach on Jo Thompson Szymanski & Maddison Glover’s dance “Pull You Through” (which Deb had taught on Thursday so it wasn’t brand new...) - another good dance. Everything I took will work well in one class or another! It just may be a bit before anyone sees them.... we leave for New Orleans on the heels of this - and there will be plenty more coming out of there! Woofda!
