29th September 2010, Wed. 8:30pm - Intermediate Line Dance (RCS). 

We have 2 newcomers in our class - Keats & Maggie. Welcome ladies! They have gamely joined us and are working hard to keep up with the learning pace of the class. I think they'll do just fine given time. Today we learnt 7/9-9/9 of DA DOO RUN RUN by Roy Verdonk & Wil Bos. Its a phrased, light rock n roll piece and is made up of basic lilt steps and was enjoyable. However as it is quite a long dance I've opted to use 1/9-4/9 for Part B instead of teaching the second part. It fitted really well and was easy for everyone to manage. NOTE : There's no class next week, 6th Oct., as the hall is being used for a function.
