This week we decided to go with Kate Sala's Country dance, released at the Worlds ANYTHING GOES 2 Wall 32 count Intermediate by Kate Sala and Sharon Newey Music Anything Goes by Randy Houser, found this music hard to get hold of and in the end got it from Amazon. This has a very fast start (3seconds need to put your skates on once pressing the play button and getting onto the floor). There is some tricky timing in the dance but nothing too hard , the problem was getting the timing right for the dancers, not surprised this did well at the Worlds the music is fabulous, it reminds us of Maggie Gallaghers dance More than a Memory, by Garth Brooks. A full floor for this one, and well worth the effort of learning. Hopefully it will do well.

Recapped Kim Rays GUANTANAMERA this one was an easy recap that almost all remembered straight away and has done really well.

Recapped MISS CALIFORNIA by Rachael McENANEY this proved to be the harder of the two dances last week with half holds in the dance and also for a 32 count dance very busy, which we did not think would appeal to all the class, as again this one has some tricky timing in it too. this is a dance that will make you have to think about it, but loads of great feed back on this one, definitely a winner for our class.

Popular dances in class Feed the fetish, When I Grow up, Feel, Hotspot, From this moment, Superbitch, Miss California, Womaniser, Madiba Mambo,Amame, Tango Cha, Turn me Loose, It's Murda, Too Close for Comfort & Like a Dream
