Dance Competition

[Jitterbug]

The Victorian Rock & Roll Dance championship is coming up on 9th and 10th of May. Should be a great event which will be held at the Heritage Bar & Grill Receptions located on High Street in Epping. I understand Shadoogie is playing live music for some of the competition events as well as the social dancing on the 10th May.

On the subject of dance competition, do you fancy winning a Bronze medal, a silver perhaps or even Gold! The 12th Australian Masters Games scheduled for 20th Feb - 1st March 2009 are coming back to Melbourne as the host city. The Games will be held in Geelong and Dance competition is one of the many on offer. Having participated in past Games, I would recommend it to all Rock & Roll and Swing dancers. I hope the format again allows one to dance at the "social" levels as well as the normal competitive levels - Advanced, Intermediate and Beginners.

The emphasis is on participation & having fun first. Winning a medal is just an icing on the cake ...........Also, you just may get to compete against overseas competitors and later making friends with them.

So start looking out for that "perfect" dance partner, and practice, practice, practice ...... I will be doing same!
