Gus Teaching at Stockport

 

After nearly 18 months in ‘retirement’ from teaching, I’m back on the regular teaching circuit again, based at Stockport Town Hall on Wednesdays. My current rota is:

 

Weds 18th June

Weds 23rd July

Weds 30th July

 

The idea is to introduce a focus on basic technique and style, making sure there is something in the lessons for dancers of all levels.

 

 

MJ Boot Camp – 25/26th October - Wilmslow

 

Quick Headlines. Cool Catz is proud to announce we are launching its new workshop format in October. It’s a new concept, a series of technical workshops aimed primarily at the Intermediate and Advanced dancer groups. To make this happen we are using only the best, trained instructors.

 

The headline instructors are non other than Simon & Nicole (http://www.simonandnicole.com/). They are regarded as one of the best competition AND teaching couples in the UK and recently wowed the crowds at Southport.

 

The Boot Camp will feature 16 one and two-hour workshops, including 5 hours by Simon and Nicole. If you only do one workshop event this year, make sure it’s this one. We GUARANTEE this is the best learning opportunity you will have in the North this year.

 

 

Charity Freestyle

 

I know its very early BUT…. at work the nominated Charity is Christie's, the charity which raises funds for the Christie Hospital - one of the leading cancer treatment centres in Europe. Through my involvement in this I’m hosting a charity freestyle between Xmas and New Year (27th December) at a great Cheshire venue. I’ll be releasing details nearer the time but please keep this date free. Aside from the cost of the hall, ALL proceeds will go to the charity as all crew on the night will be donating their time for free.

 

 

Resources

Once we re-launch the CoolCatz website (planned for end July) we will have a page dedicated to MJ resources you may find useful. In the meantime here are four websites that can be extremely useful:

 

www.UK-Jive.com Possibly the best guide to what is going on

 

www.ModernJive.com MJ resource website with great maps for venue locations

 

www.CerocScotland.com/forum The UK’s top MJ Forum

 

http://www.lyndaslist.com Lynda’s detailed list of what’s happening down South (the original list service)
