  1. Hi Celia,

    Wow!Thanks for your very fast response. Hope we will have a big group of SHCians to learn the very nice dance on Saturday afternoons.

    Francis

  2. Hi Susan

    You are a good dancer of Bachata. You did a very nice dance performance of Bachata with James Tan on 15th october with different dips and drops.

    But if you still want to go for refrsher(provided you learned the same dance from the dance studio previously), I will try to get half price for you. But i cannot promise anything.

  3. Hi Jimmy,

    In any dancing class, there is always shortage of guys. Of course, you are most welcome to join the class.

    My dear friends, Dennis wee, Thomas, Lum Fook Fatt, Dan Huang. I am sending special invitation to all the guys to join if you are free and interested.

    HI LADIES! YOU HAVE BEEN ALWAYS COMPLAINING THAT NOT ENOUGH GUYS IN THE DANCING CLASS. NOW A HANDSOME DANCE DUDE IS WAITING TO LEAD YOU. PLEASE DO NOT LOSE THE OPPORTUNITY.

    On Saturday evenings, let us learn the dance and in the evenings, we can go to Club 5 (15 minutes walking distance) to practice our Bachata and other dancing steps.

    So guys and ladies! Good opportunity to widen your circle of friends.

  4. Hi Susan Tan #3

    I checked with the dance teacher. She told me that this Bachata routine is new so there will be no 1/2 price.

    Francis

  5. Hi Jimmy,

    Can I be your dance partner but you have to be patient with me. I have learnt from them more than 2 years again and what Francis was saying, is a new type of Bachata. Would like to know what so ‘new’?

    Pls let me know.

  6. Hi Jimmy #05

    Hi friend, you owe me a big dinner.

  8. Hi Jimmy and Susan

    My congratulations to both of you for agreeing to be partners for Elementary Bachata dancing class. I wish that you continue to be partners for more dancing classes with me.

    Francis

  9. Dear Jimmy

    You are lucky to have Susan as your partner for Bachata dance class.

    She is not only good dancer but she has a lot of patience to teach man-steps to guys. You are a lucky man.

  10. Hi Susan

    You are going to partner with a handsome dance dude. I sincerely hope that Cat need not loan me to you in future ha ha

  11. Celia #18

    My friend. Learning dancing requires a lot of hard work and needs focus. I had seen a lot of very slim ladies fade away few months because they only have inspiration but no perspiration( hard work to sweat).

    At the same time, I had seen a lot of persons, who take up dancing seriously, will slim down and can dance better. Why talk about others?

    I am a living example. I lost more than 10 kilos in dancing. my waist level went down to 39 inches to 32 inches.

    So as long as you are focused and hardworking, you will definitely have a slim, sexy supermodel figure in course of time.

  12. Hahaha Francis,

    Thanks so much for your wise words. You are indeed a very versatile, intelligent person, and probably have seen most parts of the world in your travels. I am indeed humbled by your comfort words.

    BTW, I was just kidding lah …………. see you on 1 Nov and look forward to be your pupil. cheers

  13. Hi Francis ,

    I think any guy who are able to partner with Susan in
    dancing is lucky, yes, I think I am lucky !

    You are right , dancing can help one to loose weight,
    dancing can also help one to relief tension and relax
    to the sound on music .

  15. Hi Francis ,

    Your Salsa performance with Susan in the youtube video clip was Great! It could have been better if the dance area is slightly brighter and the person taking this video could have moved nearer to the stage !

    If I have the chance , I will video your next dance performance !

    Jimmy

  16. Hi Susan ,

    Wow ! you move realy like a Pro in the Salsa performance with Francis, I wonder how long you have been dancing !

    Although I have taken Salsa lesson b4 , but I don’t think
    I can dance the way You and Francis did !

    You can reach me on my other email which I can receive on my mobile phone : jimmygwee@gmail.com

    Would you like to meet up next week prior to the class on Sat. 1 Nov 08 !

  17. Hi Jimmy,

    Thanks for your nice comments about youtube video clip of salsa dance of me and Susan Tan.

    After the monthly meeting of SHC, we had been approached by a charitable organization and requested to give a dance performances today between 3pm to 3.20pm in a party organized by the club in Institute of Mental Health. We are giving performances of Salsa , Rock-and-roll and Group Cha cha. You are welcome to attend the party and give your feedback.

    Francis

  18. Jimmy, Celia and Susan

    It is a good idea to meet up before the class next Saturday. Can we meet at 2.45pm next Saturday 01/11/08 at TCC in Bugis Junction above Bugis MRT Station for an informal get-together. Then we proceed to the dance-studio for class? Let me know your feed-back

    Francis

  19. Hi, Francis ,

    Thanks for the invitation to IMH, I was out this morning and got back this evening just to read your mail !

    As for meeting up on 1 Nov 08, at TCC Bugis Junction, I will see you there, 2.45pm , thanks !

  20. Hi Francis,

    I agreed to Jimmy’s post #34. No comment is good comment. Anyway, the committee of Apex’s appreciation to our dance items.

    susan tan

  21. Hi Francis,

    Could you pls take out the video clip on salsa in the youtube mentioned in comment #10. In fact, James has already post a video sample of the same. If the SHC members want to video, they can go to the SHC website.
    Hope you respect my wish.

  22. Hi Francis,
    I have two left foot when it comes to dancing. May I drop in to the class and take a look to see what is bachata all about? If it is something i can do without tripping over too often, I may take it up.

  23. Hi two left feet Jacqueline Han

    Thanks for your interest. I talked to the dance teacher. She said by taking a look at the Bachata, you may not know whether you can do without tripping over too often.

    She suggested that you join the first class on trial basis and learn the dance. At the end of the first class, you decide. If you think that you have one left foot and one right foot, then sign up for the class. If you think that you have two left feet, and then pay $10.00 for the first lesson. I think it is fair enough. Unless you dance, you may not know whether you will trip often or not. Do you agree?

    Hi, for those SHCians, who think that they have two left feet. It is very rare opportunity for you to come to this class and join on trial basis. If you can, join. Otherwise pay one lesson only.

    Only three days left. So, SHCians, please hurry up to join on trial basis.

    Francis

  24. Hi Francis!

    Thank you for talking to the dance teacher about this. Sounds fair enough: pay $10 for one lesson to find out what I already know, “I got two left foot”. And if Ms two-left-foot still die-die want to learn to dance, I will pay in full to learn.
    Or I can be sensible and don’t even try it out! I could use the same $10 to “belanjah” my friends a plate of char kway teo, a plate of carrot cake, a plate of hokkien mee, and one glass of sugar cane juice for myself. LOL. Sorry Francis, I’m just learning to be funny. Not funny meh? But seriously – I will drop into the dance studio if time permits. Thanks much for your help. Cheers, Jacqueline Han.

  25. Hi Jacqueline

    You can bring your friends along to dance studio.If they do not want to learn dancing, they can watch while you learn to dance.

    After the class, I will “belanjah” you and your friends with hokkien mee(my favourite) and one glass of sugar cane juice.

    c u on Saturday

    Francis

  26. Hi Francis, xie xie. Thank you.
    Very generous of you to want to “belanjah” my friends and I. As a general habit, I prefer to pay for my own food and drinks – “go dutch”.
    Today I cannot make it to the dance class. So Sorry!
    Also, not such a good idea to join dancing lessons now. I just remembered that I plan to visit China third week of Nov. So, even if I wish to learn bachata, I will be missing most of the lessons. Thanks much for all your help and encouragement. C U at the next gathering!
