Convention 34.2010.Pdf International Choreographed Ballroom Dance Association July 7, 2010 WELCOME TO SAN ANTONIO Sharleen & I want to welcome you to the 34 th Annual Convention of the International Choreographed Ballroom Dance Association. Our organization is proud of being able to sponsor 34 consecutive annual conventions, an event that brings together Choreographed Ballroom Dancers (Round Dancers – lest we forget) from all parts of the world. It’s good to be back in San Antonio for the third time in the last five years. Holding our convention here in this beautiful city is always a pleasure. Within walking distance of the convention center are the Alamo historical site, several museums, Hemisfair Park, the River Walk with the canal winding between the many shops and stores, and a variety of restaurants providing an array of southwestern cuisine. The city and surrounding area have so much to offer -- in addition to having a great time at the convention, take some time to enjoy San Antonio. We all need to keep in mind that members are the most important asset for any organization and Sharleen & I want to thank each of you for being here and supporting ICBDA. Every convention brings innovative workshops, new dance routines -- some with a degree of challenge, and four evenings of great dancing and social activities that occur when friends get together. Remember, this is Choreographed Ballroom Dancing’s premier event where we can learn and dance with the best leaders. A very important part of each and every ICBDA Convention is the Annual General Membership Meeting (AGM). The meeting takes place on the last day of the convention and we urge you to attend – your input is vital to the organization as ICBDA adds new and innovative ideas each year to be used for future conventions . This is your opportunity to participate in ICBDA’s important business. In addition, during the meeting we will draw for the winner of a free pass to next year’s convention in Lakeland – the winner must be present at the AGM meeting. As you know, ICBDA is a 100% volunteer organization. It takes a large number of dedicated individuals who come together and who work very hard to make sure that our convention is a success. We extend a hearty “Well Done” to Bob and Kay Kurczewski and their committees -- when you see a committee member during the convention, be sure to say thank you to them for giving their time and efforts for each of us The program is excellent and everything is ready. Enjoy dancing on three of the best wood floors in the country and “Have a great time at your convention”. [tÑÑç WtÇv|Çz Xw 9 f{tÜÄxxÇ International Choreographed Ballroom Dance Association Message from the General Chaircouple of the 34 th ICBDA Convention On behalf of your 2010 ICBDA Convention Staff we want to welcome each and every one of you to the beautiful city of San Antonio, in the great state of Texas! We all have worked very hard to make this convention an enjoyable one for everyone. If any of you need assistance while attending this convention, please feel free to contact one of your convention staff members for help. While here in San Antonio you will find the Henry B. Gonzales Convention Center one of the best facilities at which we could host our convention. The possibility of utilizing 3 halls for your dancing pleasure cannot be topped. It is with a heavy heart that we inform you that this could be the last year we will be able to enjoy these facilities, due to renovation work that will begin in a couple of weeks. With this in mind, please take the time to explore the San Antonio area and enjoy yourselves thoroughly while here. Your Convention Staff has worked tirelessly to bring you a convention you will remember for many years to come. We want to recognize them because this special breed of people volunteered their time and effort to bring you this spectacular event. Each job that was filled by these gracious volunteers equally contributed to its success. As General Chair Couple we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to each and every one of them for making time in their busy schedules to work with us toward a successful convention. We also want to extend a big Texas “THANK YA’ALL” to the participants who have come from near and far, that who have gathered here in San Antonio, for being truly dedicated to our favorite activity, “Round Dancing.” You are the “Cream of the Crop” when it comes to our membership. We wish you all a fun filled visit to San Antonio and a safe journey back home. We hope to see all of you in Lakeland Florida next year. As we pass the baton over to Joe and Debby Krivan, General Chairman for the 35 th ICBDA Convention, we ask each of you to support them in their endeavor. You need not be a cuer or instructor to help them; everyone is eligible to lend their assistance. Volunteers are precious, and the more there are the easier Joe and Debby’s job will be. Please offer them your help to make the 35 th ICBDA convention even better than this year. Bob & Kay “Ski’s” Kurczewski 34 th ICBDA Convention Chair Couple International Choreographed Ballroom Dance Association Presents Convention 353535—35 ———Lakeland,Lakeland, FloFloridarida --- July 2020----23,23, 2011 While everyone associated with the San Antonio Convention wishes you to have the absolute best time here this week, we also want to make sure to invite you to our next convention next summer in Lakeland, Florida. Lakeland is the sometimes called the “Heartbeat of Florida”, so our slogan, “Dance to the Beat in Lakeland” is very appropriate. With Orlando, Disneyworld and Tampa less than an hour’s drive away, golf courses in abundance, the Kennedy Space Center nearby, beaches both east and west of us, and the great friendly people of our state to welcome you, you must plan to attend the first ever ICBDA convention here. Just some of our plans Pre-ICBDA weekend held locally. Three halls of dancing, teaching and vendors right across from each other. Custom foods you voted for here this week available right at the Lakeland Center. A Hyatt Hotel as the host hotel right on the property. Well known restaurants in close proximity. A circulating ice cream vendor. RV camping (with electricity) on the property.

  • Dance Ensemble Synchronisation: Movement Timing Between Two Or More People
    Dance Ensemble Synchronisation: Movement Timing between two or more People by Juliane Jacqueline Honisch A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of Psychology The University of Birmingham December 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract Dancers’ need to be coordinated in an ensemble poses multisensory challenges. The present thesis focuses on temporal aspects of visually mediated interpersonal synchronisation in dance, emphasising feedback control, using an information processing perspective. The thesis firstly reviews previous literature on psychological factors in the coordination of dance (Chapter 1). Measurement methods and analyses to examine timing of dancers’ interpersonal synchronisation are then introduced (Chapter 2). In the first two experimental chapters (Chapters 3, 4) a lead-follower paradigm is developed to quantify the temporal linkage between two or more individuals. Performer interdependence was estimated using mean, variance and serial correlation measures. Chapter 3 evaluates multimodal (auditory and visual sources) and Chapter 4 unimodal (two visual sources) on individuals’ synchronisation performances. In Chapter 5, dancers’ interpersonal synchronisation and the effect of visual and sensorimotor familiarity were investigated.

  • Standard Rhythm Introduction
    STANDARD RHYTHM INTRODUCTION The Standard Rhythms, also known as Smooth Rhythms, include the Foxtrot, Quickstep, Tango, Waltz, and the Viennese Waltz. With the introduction of Dance Sport, the name Standard was adopted to describe this set of rhythms. The following information and definitions are to help in the reading and understanding of the charted figures. These are the common definitions for the information presented. These definitions are extracted from dance publications that are used by most of the teachers of dance worldwide. Positions of the Feet This refers to the position of one foot in relation to the other at the end of a step. For example on a pull step with the right foot, the right foot will start to move back. A turn is then made on the left foot so that the right foot will end to the side. The step would be described as right foot to the side. This does not describe the actions necessary to get the right foot to the side. Usually, the amount of turn on a step is in relation to the turn the feet make, not the turn that the body makes. The turn of the body is quite often different from the amount of turn of the feet. Amounts of Turn The amount of turn in a figure or step is the amount of turn the feet or foot makes. The information of the preceding paragraph explains this further. Closed Dance Position (CP) The Closed Dance Position is the position that is maintained most of the time while dancing the Standard dance rhythms.

  • Introduction to International Waltz
    International Waltz Introduction to International Waltz General - The waltz is a dance for couples in 3/4time. The dance was developed from the Weller, a German peasant dance and the Laendler , an Austrian dance. The two most danced forms of the waltz are the Viennese Waltz and the Slow Waltz. The International waltz is a structured form of the Slow waltz and is in the smooth category of ballroom dances. The character of International Waltz is that it has a late rise over the basic three steps which can be described as “step,” “balance” and “elevation.” This is also further described as “down,” “down,” “up,” to contrast it with “down,” “up,” “up” as used in American style. Timing - The timing for International Waltz is 3/4, or three beats to each standard measure (bar) of music. The BPM, or bars per minute, used can vary from 29 to 31. Although there is an accent on the first beat, the most important consideration is the long 2 count (2 & 5 on standard weaves) which allows for a momentary suspension of the body flight where most adjustments in direction are made. Rhythm - The normal rhythm of the waltz is 1, 2, 3. Each number represents a beat in a bar (measure) of music. Frequently, however, there will be figures with more than three steps taken over one measure. Where there are more than three steps taken, there will be syncopation. This syncopation can be on any beat of the measure. In describing the figures, in this manual, each beat in the measure will have an equal amount of time associated with it.
