Cha Cha (Pt. 2) Workshop Announcement

Last weekend I taught a fantastic Cha Cha Workshop with plenty of exciting and challenging material. As is my custom, I planned more material than I usually expect to get through, so am going to teach the second half of my latest creation. Even if you did not attend Part 1, you will thoroughly enjoy this Workshop. Both parts are made up of short sequences that can be danced as stand-alone figures as well as part of a longer, choreographed routine. All the material is completely leadable (although it helps to have attended the Workshop), and also lends itself to performance or competition dancing.

Although this is an Intermediate to Advanced level Workshop, it is not necessary to have attended to have attended Part 1, as I will be concentrating on the second half. However, if time allows, I may be able to cover some highlights from the previous Workshop.

The Cha Cha, Part 2 Workshop will be held Saturday August 18 from 11AM to 1PM and will take place at Infinity Dance Center, 4428 Convoy Street, San Diego, 92111. Admission is $10 on or before Friday August 17, or $15 at the door. VISA and MasterCard accepted. You can pre-register at Infinity, by phone at 619-322-4670, or any time you see me.

I look forward to seeing you there.

Cha Cha Workshop This Saturday

I will be teaching American Style Cha Cha at Infinity Dance Center, 4428 Convoy Street, San Diego, 92111. I have put together a series of short sequences of exciting and challenging material that can be danced individually or as one complete routine. This is a workshop for experienced dancers, so some knowledge of Cha Cha is required.

The Workshop will be held 11AM-1PM this Saturday, July 21. Admission is $10 paid in advance or $15 at the door. Prices are per person. Pre registration can be done at Infinity or any time you see me. I accept cash, checks, and credit/debit cards. You can also contact me at 619-322-4670.

Bring your dance shoes, a cool drink, and a video camera for this fun and informative dance Workshop.

Foxtrot Workshop Syllabus Posted

I have just posted the syllabus for American Style Foxtrot Workshop, which I held this morning at Infinity Dance Center.  The list contains everything that I covered today. The link can be found under "Workshop Syllabus Documents" on the right column of this page. Please download and print a copy (or lots of copies) for your use. Thanks to all of you who attended. I hope you enjoyed it and will find the material useful.

If, after reviewing the syllabus, watching the video clips you may have recorded, and tried it some more, you are still having trouble working it out, contact me about scheduling a private lesson. I can be reached at 619-322-4670 or sshowers@cox.net.

I am planning on having a series of Saturday Workshops this summer, and,  when I have them scheduled, I will announce them on this blog.
