Hello Dance Therapy friends:
We had a great night, danced for almost 1.5 hour with little stops, well done team !! We were 21: Erfan, James, Jayne, Jenny, Karen, Laura, Lisbeth, Max, Pam, Peg, Shane, Sue, Suzanne, Suzi, Teresa, Tina, Luise, Bev, Sonia, Racquel and Raul.
We danced 16 choreographies: A TOUCH OF PARADISE, CINE ARE NOROC ARE, FIESTA TUNGUSIA, GOOD LUCK BABE, GORANI, HOEDOWN THROWDOWN, ISLAND IN THE SUN, LA BICICLETA, MAN, I FEEL LIKE A WOMAN (ELVIRA line dance steps), MANCHILD, MANIAC, MEN IN BLACK, MURDER ON THE DANCEFLOOR, SHIVERS, WAKA WAKA, and YOU SHOULD BE DANCING.
Here are the links to the songs and video tutorials so that everyone can practice our dances at home:
Monday next week (11th May), Michael and I will be driving back from the Gold Coast at the time of our dance session, so Peg & Max will be coordinating the dance session (Thanks Peg & Max!). I will be back Mon 18th May.
We have a few events we have been invited to attend:
- Tina announced an event by JHQ Collective on Sunday 17th May (https://thejhq.com/) — Tina will send the invite with full details of the event via email ASAP
- Laura told me that the Shoalhaven Baha'i Group will organise another event open to everyone in the community in May (https://www.facebook.com/ShoalhavenBahaiCommunity/) — Laura will send details to the group ASAP
- The band Bonnie Kay and the Sweet Patooties will be performing at the Tomerong Hall on Fri 17th July — I've been told by the organisers that there's going to be a lot of dancing to their music, so I am passing the info. Tickets are $25+bf at South Coast Tickets (https://www.southcoasttickets.com.au/events/bonnie-kay-and-the-sweet-patooties-tour/) — we got our tickets already!
- The Tomerong Hall will be celebrating their 100-Year Anniversary on Sat 17th October, they are working on the program for their event but one option they are considering is to invite us to do a FLASH MOB dance. I told them we'd love it, and they'll get back to me once they know more about the event program.
Have a great week, and see you week after next for more dancing together !!!
