Judee Curtis Our Christmas Line Dance group was small, as there were family health issues and gatherings, going out of town, going “back home,” illnesses, injuries, you name it. But the dancers who came had a great time, did a good job, and we danced every dance on the list! We also decided that, next…
Judee Curtis Our fall session has had a fantastic start. Many new dancers joined us in the SunBird Ballroom for their Ultra Basic Class. The dance list is growing, because they know the steps and patterns that have been taught. “S&Ps” are the foundation for learning more dances that will be taught through December. They…
Judee Curtis Having taught for 20+ years, I should feel really old. But as we are dancing new dances to new music, meeting new dancers, and reconnecting with the restarting dancers, that same feeling of looking forward to another great dancing year with a whole bunch of nice people tells me why I’ve taught all…
Judee Curtis New Saying: “Time flies even when we aren’t dancing!” Completing registrations for new dancers has me excited, so I’m getting organized, learning new dances, getting the playlist ready, plus emailing the dancers: “Line Dancing with Judee restarts on Monday, September 9, in the SunBird Ballroom.” If you are new and want to join…
If you are new and haven’t registered for classes restarting on Monday, September 9, in the SunBird Ballroom, now is the time! Summer’s almost over! However, we all know that statement is probably two months too soon! The blessing is we dance on the biggest dance floor in the area with A/C keeping us…
Dancing in June has given some year-round dancers the opportunity to move up a level. Taking advantage of the time and teaching one new dance a week has “eased” these dancers into that level vs. “jumping with both feet into the next full next hour”! This new plan has worked very well. We must thank…
Our group is smaller since our snowbirds “flew away.” However, we’re still learning, dancing and having FUN with full time resident dancers, aka “Survivors of AZ’s summer, sometimes starting in April!” We do stop more often to drink water. This is very necessary for ALL people to stay hydrated, especially if doing a physical activity,…
The current year-round line dancers who’ve been with me for years, the new year-round dancers, plus the “coming back” dancers, aka “snowbirds” for years have always been appreciated. Even more so with my “new hiccup.” It (the hiccup) can be called several things besides “annoying” and “a little painful.” “Bad bones” and “old age”…
What a great start for the New Year 2019! Doubling the number of dancers doubles the amount of teaching and learning, exercising minds and bodies, listening and dancing to great music and having fun with some of the nicest people! You never know how a dance is going to “go over.” When you see…
Thank you to the dancers who came to our Christmas Line Dance on Sunday, December 9. We had a really great time dancing all three levels. It’s nice for dancers to see dances at higher levels. It gives everyone an opportunity to realize there are only so many things you can do with your feet,…
