We were thrown together in a partner dance, we realised we lived near each other in the surrounding villages of Chipping Norton, so we started going to dance classes and socials together. “We were asked to run the classes for the instructor whenever he took his holidays, which helped us gain more confidence and experience. “We have a common love for Line dancing and enjoy each others company, so when the time was right we made the descision to take over the club. That was over three years ago, many dances later we still find Line dancing as enjoyable now as we did when we first started.

On a regular charity evening at the Willington Sports and Social club the local Line dancers were joined by the cadets from St John Ambulance who enjoyed having a go at Line dancing. The night was in aid of St John Ambulance Derby Cadet Unit, organised by Rob Bradley, Abigail Finedon and Angela Bower. 134 people packed the venue dressed in black and white. The DJ for the evening was Big Dave Gastap (Awesome Line dancing) who did an excellent job at mixing the dances all night. Big Dave said: “I really enjoyed the night which had a friendly and fun loving crowd, supporting a great cause. Everything imaginable was requested but personally the challenge and enjoyment was ensuring a good mix throughout the night. From teaching Electric Slide to a gang of beginners to dancing Guyton Mundy's latest advanced funky dance Shake. In between there was a great mix of requests for oldies/newies and Country/pop for dances of all levels. It's just awesome to see folk with such a wide range of tastes having a great night together.” Rob Bradley said: “The total raised on the evening was £570. Thanks must got to Willington Sports and Social Club for letting us have the room for free. We are planning another social event in the future but are unsure of a charity to support we would like linedancer readers to email us at [email protected] to let us know of any charities you would like us to support and a little bit about the charity and the work it does.” 65 Forthcoming Events

A dream come true Highly recommended I have just returned from a fantastic two weeks of Line dancing in Benidorm, Spain. We spent most of the holiday Line dancing with Len and Jean at the Nereo Hotel. Usually this venue is run by Fred and Marina but unfortunately Marina is recovering from brain surgery. Len and Jean made us feel very welcome and we learnt all the latest dances. We also enjoyed their social nights, which have a good mix of new and old dances. It was great to see the ﬂoor always full. I would recommend the venue to anyone who is visiting Benidorm. I would like to wish Marina well and I’m sure we’ll catch up next year. Sharon Spencer, Doncaster

Best of friends

Words fail me this time and I am literally walking on Cloud nine. Never in a thousand years did I expect that my small efforts over the past five years, in trying to infect my Line dancing Geneva friends with my incurable UK virus, would bring me the reward of a Crystal Boot. I really don't know how it happened, but I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am so so proud of my Boot and I have to keep touching it just to make sure I'm not still dreaming. Each year Betty you've made the Awards something special for me – two year's ago, our first Crystal Boots, we were a team of nine and you gave me the honour of presenting alongside Pedro, the Award to Maggie and Peter – two people I know well. Then last year, we were 14 and you asked me to judge the parade on Sunday alongside Michele Perron and Roy Verdonk. I honestly thought that this year I'd be left to just enjoy the weekend – I was wrong! I am pictured at the Crystal Boot Awards The whole group of 28 had a ball and my surprises over the weekend didn't finish in with my friend Pru Reid from Durham. We Blackpool. Unbeknown to me, Catherine and Ursula asked the air hostess on our plane to make first met eight years ago in Teneriffe when an announcement on the flight and Catherine quickly wrote the text. So there I am, sipping we discovered we shared the love of Line champagne when over the loudspeaker comes the announcement to all the passengers that I'd dancing. Since then we have kept in touch won a Crystal Boot. Rounds of applause and some very astonished passengers who had possibly by phone and e-mail. We try to visit each been trying to sleep. Then to cap it all, there just happened to be a freelance photographer other at least once a year. on the flight who takes photos of the "Stars" and sends them off to magazines and he was so Pru lives on a farm and each year she has a amazed by all this that he said he wanted to take our photos. 25 of us, kneeling, standing in the ho-down with a barbeque and Line dancing, aisle, on the seats, had our photo taken. There were a few worried faces thinking that we'd tilt bales of hay the whole works, it's great fun. the plane, but luckily we didn’t cause any turbulence. A tough act to follow, so when the Awards Thank you all on behalf of the whole group for such a fantastic weekend. We were so where held in Southport, two years ago, I delighted to see you, Betty enter the Hall of Fame, and at long last Scott won the international invited Pru to come and stay with me and choreography Award and Big Dave has the recognition he deserves – it was just perfect. we went to the Crystal Boot Awards in WendyDi Silvestro, Geneva Southport. She absolutely loved it. When it was announced this year's would be that last we just had to meet up and go together.

I have been Line dancing for nine years I have been teaching for eight years and I enjoy it despite the demands. When I began I don’t and during that time I have visited a think I realised what was required because I took over quite quickly from someone who had number of different clubs. Looking decided to give up. I was lucky because I had an excellent teacher who helped me organise back I have always had fun learning, everything I needed, including a PPL licence, insurance and a first aid certificate. attending, socialising and dancing. If I Love doing what I do but I am a little concerned about the clubs which are ran by people this had not been the case I would have with no training, no music licence, insurance or first aid. Can anything be done to let people stopped going a long time ago. In the last know what is required to teach Line dance? three or four years I have learnt more Mrs Ward, Lancashire advance dances and have really enjoyed There are lots of organisations that can help with setting up Line dance classes.

I find the more effort I put into a dance, the More from the Crystal Boot Awards more I enjoy it. I love practising at home, whatever the standard of the dance, as it helps me to feel on top of it. Everyone is different, in my group of friends we all have different favourites. We feel sitting out one dance gives us chance to chat, have a rest, or just watch. Concentration is important on the dancefloor but we can afford to have a few jokes and relax. Dance allows us to express ourselves and those who are naturally talented should be given freedom on the dancefloor. Young people seem to be able to dance with a relaxed style, which is good fun and pleasing to watch. I think it is a cherished talent and this ability should be encouraged. Line dancing was not around when I was younger but I feel like at least I can enjoy it now. The feeling I get when I dance well is uplifting and when I am on the floor my mind is clear of anything else. I may not look good but I feel good. If Thanks for the opportunity of taking part in the opening show. We loved every minute of it and people have limitations then they need would jump at the chance given another opportunity next year – as this was the highlight of to find a club to suit them.
