Remember to read all the comments

Click on comments to find out what everyone has to say. There has been a really interesting comment posted about rebounders following our amazing afternoon with Hamish Tailyour. I just have to remember to get on my rebounder. What I usually do is 1 or 2 minutes at a time a couple of times a day. I should do more.
You will have to check out my new music system. I am loving it. Sam says I need a t-shirt that reads "Rockin's what I do". Yeah. The guy who built it reckons you got to look the part when you are playing your music. He rocks.
Also my excellent excellent web site. Designed by my wonderful awesome sister Kim. It is so clear and easy to read and access. Nice to look at especially if you can find a photo of yourself there. He He He. If anyone wants a web site built and designed I can let Kim know.
I have had a very exciting week. Very special and I am very spoilt. Can't wait to share everything with you all.
Cheers
Felicity

Thanks for your comments

Firstly Annie, I would like to say that you pick up the dances incredibly quickly and I was so impressed with your son. He was great. He also was able to do any dance. I will put the dance sheet Memory Lane on my web site http://www.felicitysdancingline.co.nz/ Have you seen the dance sheets on there. They are in alphbetical order. I am having trouble getting music at the moment because I have the new windows vista and it doesn't seem to like some internet sites. I will talk to you at class about this Annie.
If anyone has a dance sheet that I have not got. Email it to me. It is the easiest way for me to put it on my web site. Also class photos are easiest emailed to me too.
Have an awesome week and remember the dance social is this Saturday 1 September. And if you want to be in blossom parade in Hastings on 15 Sept. Let me know or write your name on list which is at classes.
Cheers Felicity

What a great afternoon on Tuesday 21st

We had a lovely afternoon today. Hamish gave a really interesting informative talk on being independent and non-neurotic in looking after our own health and being responsible for our own health. These days we tend to blame all sorts of things and rely on many things to keep pain and discomfort at bay. He was so easy to understand and basic and commonsense in his ideas and suggestions. Of the 18 people who attended, there wasn't one who did not enjoy and get something from his talk. It is amazing how we have got away from basic living and eating that we all did when we were young. Just every day things.
Thanks to all of you who came and thanks to Annette, Judy, Joy and Lois who got friends to come along. There were a third of non linedancers there today. Hamish was encouraged to continue his talk which ran us over time and so afternoon tea will now be shared at Wednesdays class, that is if Sam and Ray haven't eaten it all.
If you have read all the comments on this blog you will see that I have been trying to answer all queries.
To the new line dancer. All people are very very welcome to come to our socials. It is a great opportunity to see the different levels of dancers and to see what you can achieve also, within a short time. Also you will see the fun and the passion that we have. Social is on 1 September. We will have raffles and door prizes.

Thanks for offer of cellophane

I wasn't going to wrap the spot prizes. Does anyone think I should. Give me your views on this or you may have some good ideas or some talent for wrapping spot prizes. LOL

Tips for beginners

Experience is the best tip for line dancing. The more you dance the better you get. I have people who come more than once a week and they definitely pick up the dances more easily than most people who come only once a week. Another way to remember the dances is to get the step sheet for the dances that you have learnt at class and practise at home. The hardest thing about line dancing is not the physical side of it but remembering the dance sequence. You can go on line and search the dance sheets.
Also I have had a query about where to find Bay Coasters line dancing on a Friday. We are at the Hibernian Club Hastings. Use the back entrance as club is not open for business when we start dancing. This class on a Friday 10am and is the best class to start in. The level is from learner to beginner level so it is easier to learn some of the different dance steps (these can be found on line as well). I will be starting a new learner class in September if there is enough interest. Let me know if you are keen.
Looking forward to Social on 1 September at Friendship Centre, Taradale 1.30pm-5pm with afternoon tea.

Hey Pat,
Clever girl. To read everyones comments look at the left of the screen and click on comments listed under blog archive.
Tested myself at dancing today. Tried really hard to push myself and my legs and knees held up. A little sore but not as bad since I have been doing the stretches that the physio has given me.
Next week we have Hamish Tailyour at 1.30pm on Tuesday 21st August at the CancerSociety rooms in Nelson Street.
Bus trip for Bay Coasters is on Tuesday 30th October. Will be a lovely day. We will relax and dance and spend time with each other, oh and also eating yum. Fun will be had by all. I will get all the details out about this soon.
Have an awesome week. Keep on dancing.

Apparently, if you choose other or anonymous, you don't have to register with google to get an account.

Glad to see you are all using my blog. Had a great lunch at Cafe Devine today. Huge meals and we (my playgroup) were all impressed. Great service.
yes I still belong to a playgoup, we don't take the kids anymore (actually, I don't think they would come). Gave up on that 10 or so years ago. We go out every couple of months and catch up as if we only saw each other yesterday. Had a great lunch today girls if you are reading this. Emily or anyone can you tell me if everyones comments are able to be read if not can you tell me how I rectify this.
Thanks Sue for your comments about Monday class. I have a wonderful time too.

week of 6 August 2007

Well... Finished the marathon. So pleased with myself. Did a really good time. 2:49. In my age group of 176 women I came 18th. Very pleased. My knees were excellent during and after the race. After line dancing on Monday night was a different story. Back to physio tomorrow. But all and all I have recovered extremely well. Better than the last one. I had great support in Taupo. Ray was there all the way. Emily and her friend came up from Wellington which I am so chuffed about and Mary and Barry Jones were in Taupo to cheer me on. I got so much moral support from everyone, I am so lucky.
Monday class I taught Beat me Daddy and hope to teach it on Friday. Wednesday I want to teach Boobyalla.
Dates to remember: 21st aug Hamish Tailyour speaking on Healthy living and 1st Sept OUR social.
If you have a question for me. Post it here and I will get back to you. Also, it may be a question lots of people want the answer for. Like what step goes in what dance etc etc.
cheers have an awesome week. Felicity
