Calling all Line dancers (and non-line dancers too)
Time again to put on your dancing shoes and bring a few friends to join us for 5 hours of non-stop line dancing on a Sunday afternoon.
For those who do not dance, you can bring your bottle of ‘lethal’ or ‘non-lethal’ liquids, some snacks, kick off your shoes, sit back and relax to some good old music (mostly country western) and watch people dance (if you want to)
Details are as follows :
-
Date : 15 Jul 2012, Sunday
-
Time : 2pm to 7pm
-
Place : Paya Lebar/Kovan CC (air-conditioned hall)
-
Cost : $4.00 (with a bottle of mineral water)
I will put up the dance list after I have collated all the requests, so if you have any favourite dances you want to do then please send me a request via e-mail or through this thread and I will try my best to put them on the list. For non-dancers I can take requests if you have any favourite songs of yours you want me to play too ….that is provided I can find a dance to the songs and there are at least 10 people who can do the dance.
As this is not a strictly SHC event, you can bring your friends along and have some fun too… yeeehaaaa
As usual for those who have forgotten the steps or want to learn a few more dances for the jam, you are welcome to come to my classes for some practice sessions starting this week for a nominal fee of $5.00 which will cover all the practice sessions on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays

Sockie
Hi AndrewY
You have left your precious folder (which contained instruction sheets to various dance steps) on the back table where we sat. Luckily there’s your name printed on one side of the instruction sheet… **(^o^)**
It’s with me now and I’ll bring it along on Jul 28 nite…
So see you on Arabian nite ya… (^_~)
Cheers – Pauline
Hi Pauline
Thanks for keeping the step sheets for me, otherwise, all those dance will leave me and gone with the wind.
Really forget everything after enjoyed the line dances I missed long ago. In Cantonese, the people like me is called ??? – ???? (my head is not big, but the brain even smaller)
See you on the Arabian nite, and we can do the “Shy Waltz” together, still remember how to do? (^_~).
Hi AndrewY (??)
Yes, I have been practising those “complicated” steps on every available moment that I have (both at home and in the office) until my colleagues warned me that should I “brake”, turn suddenly or reverse unexpectedly, I would need to send out advance signal or else I would either clash into them or they would have to jump aside to avoid me… (>~<)
Hopefully, this song is in the list to be played on that nite as it will be the ONLY line dance song that I will know how to dance confidently… hahaha….(~_~)
Counting the days now…
Cheers – Pauline
Hi Pauline
If you called me ??, next time when Sockie see me, she will hit me in my head, as I got a ?? without obtained her permission first, haha.
The song should not be in the list, but when the waltz music come out, we can shy, shy go to one corner to do the ‘shy waltz’ with just two of us, when the other doing their social waltz.
Yo Andrew, your suggestion on the “corner practise” of the shy waltz is fine with me lah.. (o^_^o)
Meanwhile, ok… I’ll take back the ?? title ?for the time being) as I do not want you to be in trouble with your very own “? ?”, Sookie… kekekeke… (^_~)
Otherwise, there will be no more extra lesson for me from you… [T_T]
So see you in 8 days’ time ya… ^o^
