Hello Dancers...
Thanks to all the dancers who came out to our dance last Sunday. And a
special thanks to those who stuck with the Country Two Step lesson. This
coming week we plan to ease up and teach an easier one... Maybe.
At 6:30 we are teaching basic Mambo and at 8pm a Country Two Step move.
Next week (February 2nd) we start a West Coast Swing series. The lesson time
is changing! The first lesson is still from 6:30 to 7pm but the second
lesson starts immediately after from 7:00 to 7:30. Then dancing straight
through until 10:00 or after. Last Sunday we quit at 10:30.
*****************************************************************
The Atlantic Sea Shore is rapidly approaching... Josie asked me to make sure
everyone knows that the discount offer was for the Friday night dance
starting at 8pm February 7th. They have a list of people who have come to
Two Step Tidewater dances at the registration desk to avoid any problems.

Bad Habits for Men & Ladies
These are some sure fire ways to become the dancer, couple, band or club to
avoid.
(in no particular order)
1. Come as you are. Why bother with a shower and fresh clothes. You are just
going to perspire anyway so why mess up a clean shirt.
2. If she won't step where you want just push or pull a little harder. Some
of these women are like mules you really have to let them know who is in
charge! Isn't that what leading is all about?
3. And... Why move where I'm being led" After all, I know the steps better
than him! Maybe a little back leading will help.
4. Get out of our way!! Can't you see that I have to finish this pattern..
And why isn't this dance floor the same shape as the one I learned the
pattern on?
5. Sorry I rock stepped on you but you should have known my feet are so big
I need an extra six feet around me.
6. And for those who dance at clubs... Do non dancers run into you on a busy
sidewalk? No? Then why do you spend your night dodging the same non dancers
in the clubs? It must be something that makes people go blank when they step
onto a dance floor.
7. And what's up with these bands that ignore the dance floor. Why play
dance music? All these people are here for is to find out how cool we are.
Can't Waltz at triple speed for nine minutes? That's not our problem. Tempo
changes just make the dance interesting.
8. How about the social clubs. You know the ones. The day just before the
dance was Bingo night. Beer, sodas, candy, pizza cheese, mayo from burgers.
It's all there, still on the floor. I just can't figure out why my shoes are
so dirty. If you want to spin quick use the corner with the mayo stain.
Venture to the spilled beer corner and you can stop on a dime. What a
challenge!
9. Back to the studios... Hey lady! That new arm styling was pretty cool. I
ducked pretty quick too didn't I?
10. (And my all time favorite) Which dumb bell instructor taught you to stop
and back up like that? If you are going to do that again you need signal
lights so we don't get another multi-couple pile up. And if you insist that
neither of you needs to look behind when backing you need rear view mirrors
and a backup alarm as well.
Every once in a while I need to let it out. Boy do I feel better. Does
anyone have something to add to this list?
