A class had just started up nearby and I went along with some friends dressed in jogging gear not knowing what to expect. I took to it immediately” Due to the explosion of Line dance all over At this time it was the only Line dance class France, Davy is often called upon to give in the area and it was very much Country workshops in different parts of the country, Western orientated which has led him to choreograph his own dances.

Linger in Vines 1 30/10/08, 11:51:04 am Knowing that it’s impossible to do everything, he’d rather concentrate on Line dancing both country and non-country as both styles bring him something. “The pleasure of dancing, while respecting the choices of others and the pleasure of Line dancing seeing everyone do the same thing, I’ve always liked that, like those video clips of Michael Jackson”

Aware that Line dancing has levelled off in the USA and to a lesser degree in the UK he believes that eventually the same thing will happen in France but that it will continue somewhere, somehow. David is very happy to see the explosion in France and says “I’m always ready to help and participate in the activity to bring pleasure to people.”

When he is not on the dance ﬂ oor, you can ﬁ nd Davy thousands of metres up in the Alp Mountains. He loves rambling in the mountains as much as dancing. “To escape, to see that in front of the grandeur of nature we humans are nothing, we’re very small, it puts everything into perspective”

Earlier this year Davy had the pleasure of attending Linedancer Magazine’s Crystal Boots Awards which opened his eyes to what was happening abroad. He’s been invited back next year and can’t wait to go. “I will be hosting a workshop and I am really thrilled! I am going to work hard on my English and perhaps one day I’ll get a Crystal Boot Award too” he jokes. Never say never, Davy!

Meet Ulrica from Sweden. She was one of the ﬁ rst to send us a song to ‘Linedancer’s Got Talent’ and we just loved it. If you like Eva Cassidy, you are sure to love her amazing version of ‘Angel’. You can ﬁ nd it on the website and here is her story….

My name is Ulrica Thörnqvist, I’m 34 years old and I live in Halmstad, Sweden. I have just graduated and I’m now a logistics coordinator looking for a job.

For as long as I can remember songs have been a huge part of my life. I come from a very musical family and I have been singing since the day I could talk apparently. My mom has told me that I would climb up on chairs when there were people around and I would start to sing. My main stage has always been at church. I was raised a Christian and I still sing at church and value my faith and belief in God very highly. I studied music for two years from when I was 16 until was 18. I’ve also been singing t wedding ceremonies. Not a ay goes by without me singing omething, at home, in the car, in hurch. Singing is my passion!

Take Cover A Great Scottish

I am one of an informal group of friends who Welcome meet weekly in Manchester for Line dancing at letter the Beginner and Improver level. Although we are an informal group, we believe we should take out appropriate insurance cover for our meetings. Is anyone able to suggest how and where such cover can be obtained? I would # appreciate any advice. Thankyou. ST R W. R. Jones Salford

Don’t Want To Just Sit Back

I would like to agree with your star letter in the November issue of Linedancer. I have been at dances where this has happened frequently. People are given request slips to ask for the dances that they know and like and for a short time some will be played. Then as the evening progresses the DJ will play for certain people. I know some people who have told me they will never go back to these dances as they feel that they paid their money and were left sitting in their chairs watching a handful on the fl oor, dancing to something Whilst on holiday in Scotland Diane from Norfolk that is just simply terrible needed a Line dance fi x. “Anyone travelling in the South as well as for the music.

I have received Linedancer magazine since 1996 and it has always been read from front to back and again. Even now I have every copy. Linedancer should be proud of a great magazine, I am still as thrilled now as was 12 years ago. S. A. Leggate

When Craig Ben he could not believe his dancers when they met him. Ma reports for Linedancer magazine about C fantastic trip.

It all started, as many things seem to do We ate and drank sake for about four hours! these days, with an e-mail. Farly Iguchi from Oddly enough can’t remember that much!” Japan wrote to Craig with a question about one of his dances. They had met in Las Vegas The workshop was held from September 11-14. at an event, so they knew each other a little, The fi rst day, Thursday, was a special workshop and that one e-mail blossomed into a trip to geared towards budding choreographers. Japan for Craig. The morning was spent learning good styling technique for different dance rhythms. Then Craig had always wanted to come to Japan, in the afternoon, Craig gave the participants Farly and his partner Lily Izuka were some hands on experience in how to interested in putting on a workshop with choreograph a dance. After talking about what him, and away they went. Craig says: “After makes for good choreography, the participants a 13 hour fl ight, I got to have a fantastic were split into four groups, and each group introduction to Japanese hospitality with my was to choreograph 16 counts of a dance. fi rst real experience in a Japanese restaurant. They then put the sections together, and

craig.doc 1 30/10/08, 2:04:13 pm ended up with a dance that they named “Tokyo Fascination”. Each group was required to write their own part of the step sheet, and voila!, a new dance was born. This dance was taught at one of the workshops over the weekend. Craig thinks that was one of the event’s highlights. “Everyone enjoyed creating Tokyo Fascination. The sheer fact they had created something tangible together gave everybody there a fabulous sense of achievement.”

Friday was a day off, and Craig was taken to Tokyo Disneyland. They got there as it opened, and stayed until it closed. Saturday and Sunday were two days of workshops in Kawasaki, just outside of Toyko. Craig taught a variety of dances, mostly his own choreography but also some by other choreographers. He even taught a couple of brand new dances and used the group as guinea pigs to see how they liked them. Craig says; “I really put them through their paces with teaches like The Way You Look, You’re Just Too Good, Girl, Tokyo Fascination, Just Stand Up, Faith In Love but they all took it in their stride!”

Craig is a very patient, thorough instructor and even the beginners were able to get the dances after a little practice. Saturday evening was party time, with lots of open dancing and other fun things. Craig was dressed as a baby chick and he was just ado---rable! Of course he then had to lead everyone in the Chicken Dance.

Seems like Japan has fallen in love with Craig and because of his skills not only as a choreographer but as a warm and thoughtful teacher. Farly simply says: “We all enjoyed dancing with him.” As for Lily: “During his off time, Craig is a 25 year old young man, but when he’s working, he’s very professional and you forget how young he is. He has a sense of fashion which also shows up in his choreography, I think.” But the last words are Farly’s who says: Having instructors, dancers, choreographers come to Japan is a great way to make new friends in the Line dance world, and we look forward to making many more.”

Yo u too can experience Craig’s “Tokyo Fascination” and watch a terriﬁ c video of his trip on Onlinedancer this month thanks to Mami, the club’s terriﬁ c videographer available on www.linedancermagazine.com
