  • Round Dances Scot Byars Started Dancing in 1965 in the San Francisco Bay Area
    Syllabus of Dance Descriptions STOCKTON FOLK DANCE CAMP – 2016 – FINAL 7/31/2016 In Memoriam Floyd Davis 1927 – 2016 Floyd Davis was born and raised in Modesto. He started dancing in the Modesto/Turlock area in 1947, became one of the teachers for the Modesto Folk Dancers in 1955, and was eventually awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award for dance by the Stanislaus Arts Council. Floyd loved to bake and was famous for his Chocolate Kahlua cake, which he made every year to auction off at the Stockton Folk Dance Camp Wednesday auction. Floyd was tireless in promoting folk dancing and usually danced three times a week – with the Del Valle Folk Dancers in Livermore, the Modesto Folk Dancers and the Village Dancers. In his last years, Alzheimer’s disease robbed him of his extensive knowledge and memory of hundreds, if not thousands, of folk dances. A celebration for his 89th birthday was held at the Carnegie Arts Center in Turlock on January 29 and was attended by many of his well-wishers from all over northern California. Although Floyd could not attend, a DVD was made of the event and he was able to view it and he enjoyed seeing familiar faces from his dancing days. He died less than a month later. Floyd missed attending Stockton Folk Dance Camp only once between 1970 and 2013. Sidney Messer 1926 – 2015 Sidney Messer died in November, 2015, at the age of 89. Many California folk dancers will remember his name because theny sent checks for their Federation membership to him for nine years.

  • Rise, Fall, and the Foxtrot Three Step by Harold & Meredith Sears
    Rise, Fall, and the Foxtrot Three Step by Harold & Meredith Sears Foxtrot is one of the Smooth Rhythms, along with waltz, quickstep, and tango, but it is a particularly smooth rhythm, with its long steps, easy flow, and its gliding motion around the floor. One of the features of foxtrot that gives it this smooth look is early rise. We take our first step heel to toe, we straighten the leg, we even stretch a little in the torso (being careful not to lift our shoulders toward our ears). We have "foot rise" and "body rise" -- we are up at the end of the first step. We take the second step on the ball of the foot, staying up. The third step is on the ball, and we lower through the body and to the flat of the foot only at the end of step 3. We get up quickly, we soar like a bird, and we lower at the end, ready to do it again. The shape of foxtrot rise and fall is like a flat western mesa. In contrast, waltz is less flat and more undulating. We begin to rise at the end of the first step, we continue to rise during step 2 and even into step 3, and then we lower at the end of step 3. Our rise is more gradual, more wave-like, with crests and troughs, a gentle up-and-down breathing. The shape of waltz rise and fall is more like a softly eroded ocean island. So, waltz is something of a roller coaster, and foxtrot is more of a high traverse on skis.
