FITS 2019

FUN IN THE SUN (FITS) 2019

Another great dance event! Many thanks to Jen Cameron & JC Dance Productions, staff, and volunteers for all their time and effort in putting together a well run event! As always, thanks to Kelly & Kellie for all their work with the floors, pictures, videos, live streams, and everything else they do that we don’t even see! All the choreographers brought their A-games - a real treat to see Jackie & Doug Miranda! And fun, as always, to learn from Roy & Fiona! And to have little Mason White crawling to the dance floor! Cute!!! Rachael & Paul have their hands full!

For me, the weekend was a more “relaxed” event - meaning I didn’t need to be in a class every hour of every day! I was able to take just a few classes and brush up on some technique & styling on some I already know/have taught.

Classes I took included:
Trevor Thornton - Sunshine 365
Roy & Fiona - Dance On The Weekend, Made For Now, People Help The People,  Look At You, We Love It
Jackie Miranda - No Matter What

Looking forward to seeing these on a dance floor soon!

Niels Poulsen Workshop
July 20, 2019

GREAT!!! day of dance!!! Many thanks to Sandy & Diane for another spectacular day! So fun to have Niels join us for a day! Great to see him again! And Dottie!!! OMG! FANTASTIC cookies!!! I was sugared-out all the way back to Naples!

Niels taught us 6 dances - one of which was released in October, 2018 - “Right Now”. How did we miss that one? Cute as can be!!! It’s going to be one of my first teaches!

Swing Train (cute beginner - my class is gonna love it!)
Right Now (fun, “samba-ey” - can’t wait to teach it!)
Thorn In My Side (higher improver, very manageable)
Wanna Know (rolling 8 - like it!)
Obsession Cha (oooooohhhh! Love it!)
Thousand Times (super cool nightclub)

I’m leaving on a 2-week vacation so many of these will be taught to my class and in the classes I attend while I’m gone - but very excited to be able to dance them when I return.

Thanks for another super day of dance!!!
