June

Andrew Sinkinson, besides coaching, gave an excellent seminar. We practiced use of breathing with movements, excercises forwards and backwards and collection points. We learned about developing sensitivity towards our partner.

John Wood coached for several days
.

April

Hans Laxholm gave a terrific seminar for improving your dance movements. We practiced using our standing leg with steps forward and backward. We added clapping and deep breathing . Then finally we tried to incorporate all the above in dance steps. We are learning our energy level by using our mind.

February

Valentine's Day Party was enjoyed by all. People were impressed with Robert Sweeney's voice and the beautifully decorated ballroom. Dancing on this Friday night was quite romantic.

Hans Galke, Latin World Champion and South American Show Dance World Champion 3 times, coached professional Latin couples. These professionals traveled from many distant states.

January

New Years' Eve was a wonderful evening with a fantastic show by Andrei Gavriline and Elena Kryuchkova. The menu included a prime rib, chicken and fish entree, wine, champagne and an early morning continental breakfast. Everyone enjoyed their dancing and are looking forward to New Year's Eve 2005.
