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
