Hello Dancers! I can’t believe that it is summer already! I have been travelling for dance events out of town during the past few months and it feels like a blur!!

So just some updates to begin with: I have to say a great big thanks to everyone who had me instruct at their events in the past while.

 I had so much fun in Calgary, with my two-step dance debut in April at Calgary Dance Stampede. Great event Keith and Jena Armbruster, Thanks for having me be a part of it! Then even more fun in June with Extreme Swing. Again in Calgary, this was a full weekend with Kyle and Sarah, and Robert Royston doing west coast swing workshops. Thanks Robert for having me as your dance dummy!(note, meaning dance assistant) I can’t say enough about how Robert helps dancers to transform their west coast swing dancing and take it to a whole new level in musicality! If you want to treat yourself, take one of his intensive west coast swing dance workshop weekends. So worth it!!!!!!

Also a big thanks to Connie and Gerry Schaad in Courtney for their Swingilicious event! And to  Tom Selzler for the two Shag and Swing dance weekends! So much fun!

Lastly, a great big thanks to Elizabeth for having put together the Two-step classes at Urban Beat Dance Co. Can’t wait to have some more in the fall! Hopefully we will see all you west coast and two-step dancers out at Boone County during the summer. Let’s kick up our heals some more…..

One side note,  have to say, Well Done to the Romantic Dance Class dancers! You guys did such a lovely job of learning Waltz, Foxtrot, and Nightclub Two-step. Wishing all of the wedding couples out there a wonderful first dance and many more to come!

So what is on the horizon for summer? We will be having west coast swing and salsa dance classes as usual. Will also have another freestyle dance class session as well. For those of you who have been wanting to learn more about body movement and body isolations, this class is very helpful. I basically work on movement from head to toe, so that not only can you look good on the club dance floor, you can incorporate things into your partner dancing as well! So check it out in July!

Hope all of you are having a blast on the social dance floor. It is wonderful with more social dances being offered on the weekends! Thanks to everyone who is helping to grow our communtity! You are doing a great job!

So happy dancing, til next time,

Pamela Podmoroff, Urban Beat Dance Co.
