FIELD TRIP TO DC - We're arranging a TSDC Field Trip to DC for a weekend of dancing and lessons with Jordan and Tatiana on October 21-23. We'll rent a small bus for our group and arranage the hotel and meals. It'll be a great time! Space is limited, so if you're interested in reserving a seat, email the club. We'll be sending out more details soon.

Also, don't forget to mark your calendar for the big TSDC Swingin' Christmas Dinner-Dance, December 10th at DanceSport!

**************************************

There are three great professional West Coast Swing weekends in our region this fall!! Check these out and email the club if you have any questions! We're planning for a club field trip for Jordan and Tatiana on Oct 21-23. Email the club to get your name on the list! More details coming soon!

--------------------------------------------------------------
September 16-18 - Robert Cordoba and Deborah Szekely in Raleigh Robert and Deborah have a very precise style and emphasize lead and follow technique. Their moves are usually not too complex, but they're fun and build on a good WCS foundation. There will be 3 workshops on Saturday and another 3 on Sunday. They are $15 each by Sept 1st. We'll post more details on the TSDC web site, but you can email the club or contact Robin and Darlene though our Mid-Atlantic Swingin' Links on our web site: www.TidewaterSwingDanceClub.com

--------------------------------------------------------------
September 23-25 - Kyle Redd and Sarah Vann Drake in DC Kyle and Sarah have a special style all their own. Their moves are very creative for both leaders and followers and they have a fun teaching style.
There will be great social dances at Cherry Hill on Friday and Saturday nights and lessons on Saturday - and usually an advanced class on Sunday. We'll post more details on the TSDC web site or you can email the club. This is being put on by Dave Moldover and Company and is the first half of his two Champions Weekends! Jordan and Tatiana are next...

-------------------------------------------------------------
October 21-23 - Jordan Frisbee and Tatiana Mollmann in DC Jordan and Tatiana are the top Classic WCS dancers on the circuit. They have a great musical connection and their moves are excellent. The format will be the same as for Kyle and Sarah. The highlight is the social dancing at night!
We're getting a TSDC Field trip together for this weekend. We'll handle group transportation and help with roommates. Email the club if you're interested.

------------------------------------------------------------
These are 3 of the top West Coast Swing couples in the country and you'll get to learn from them in a less formal setting. It makes for a fun weekend of dancing and lessons. If you have questions, let us know!

If you have any questions or comments, email the club!

Thanks!

The variety in West Coast Swing comes from the music and we hope that our series of “swing friendly” dances is allowing you to experience dancing WCS to different music.

I’d say the #1 comment we receive is about music. Often we get “great music” and “terrible music” comments on the same night!
The problem is that many people in our area are getting used to dancing WCS to one style of music.

As you become aware and appreciate what different styles (and
tempos!) of music add to WCS, you’ll enjoy the dance more and understand why so many people throughout the country love to dance West Coast Swing all night!

If you have any questions, email the club or Brad and Janene at dancewestcoastswing("AT")yahoo(dot)com.

Friday night is always a good night to go to Heartbreak Cafe. On Saturday "Coolin Out" is playing at Steppin Out and you definitely do not want to miss that! We will definitely be going to Steppin Out. (7 to 9:30-10:00),

Tidewater Swing Dance Club (TSCD)

Where we came from, where we are, and where we’re going…

West Coast Swing is one of the fastest growing and most enjoyable dance forms in the country today. Unlike many stagnant dance forms that rely on a rigidly formatted syllabus and countless hours of expensive instruction, West Coast Swing is a very dynamic and musically interpretive dance that allows both men and women to creatively interact to a wide variety of music from Frank Sinatra to InSync. The dance is only limited by your imagination and basic skill. Once you learn the correct West Coast Swing fundamentals, and how to converse with your partner within the context of the dance, you’ll understand why so many dancers love to dance West Coast Swing till the wee hours of the morning. Each different song and each different partner provide a unique opportunity to dance to the music – together!

The Tidewater Swing Dance Club was formed in April 2002 to enhance the social dance scene in the Tidewater area by promoting West Coast Swing and developing a West Coast Swing dance community. Throughout the summer of 2002 the club met at various established local dances, taught introductory lessons, and recruited members. Several series classes were also held to develop fundamental West Coast Swing technique. In September 2002, the club began hosting monthly dances at rented facilities at both Southside Hampton Roads and Peninsula locations. The club’s primary goal is to provide a fun and friendly West Coast Swing dance community for all interested dancers by organizing dances, instruction, workshops, and special events.

Make your dues check payable to, Steve Buttice, the TSDC treasurer and mail to 102 Ivy Court Williamsburg, Virginia 23185, or bring it to one of our dances.

If you’d like more information you can email the club at dancer "AT" tidewaterswingdanceclub.com
