***Drum Roll***

The 2 dance styles we have chosen to teach. Picture yourself performing your chosen dance routine at a red carpet event. This is an amazing opportunity to learn something new, raise money for local charities and feel amazing in 2019

Which one is your favourite?

1 - American Smooth:
Picture Fred and Ginger gliding across the screen, sometimes together, sometimes apart, but always in perfect time. This is American Smooth. Adapted in America from the traditional standard dances of Europe, American Smooth includes four dances that are also performed in the International Standard: waltz, tango, foxtrot and Viennese waltz. While the Standard dancers must remain in contact throughout, American Smooth couples are allowed to separate, and even perform solo moves, before rejoining. This “open hold” gives them more creative freedom and leads to a distinctly different kind of expression than is seen in the International Standard style.

2- The Charleston:

A lively and energetic dance that’s characterised by kick steps and twisting feet. This animated dance is most popular today as a partner style dance that has ties to swing dancing and Lindy Hop.

Amazing. So glad we have the opportunity to support local charities. What these amazing people do at “Befriend a Child” helping children all over the north east is just phenomenal.

Signing up to this event, gives you a challenge, gives you an opportunity, but most of all gives you the best feeling in the world knowing you are spreading love, positivity, and generosity.

Make it happen ☺️

***Announcement***

After a considerable amount of thought Elma and I have the first charity confirmed, we feel this charity can benefit on a large scale from what we hope to achieve by organising this event. Befriend a Child I spent some time with some of the amazing organisers of this charity today and we could not be happier to be part of helping raise awareness and funds for such a much needed local charity in today’s society.

We have so much more information to release in the next few weeks and we can not wait.

We support disadvantaged and troubled school-aged children and young people growing up in and around Aberdeen. We believe that every child deserves a happy childhood and a chance to succeed in life. Our motto is “turn a frown upside down”.

We would like to introduce an event we are organising, full details are being worked on and more information will be updated to this page. 2017 saw the first event up north for Ultra Ballroom, many particpated in this event and it was amazing to be part of the entire experience, 2018 saw the second but last event from Ultra Ballroom. We are unaware of why they made the decision to pull it from Aberdeen, we have contacted and had permission to do a similar event. We are going to raise money for local charities with each event we do.

For some basic information on what we are doing. We will be looking for non professional couples to sign up for 8 weeks free dance training in order to raise money for local charities and dance a routine at an event to friends and family. You will be competing at something you may have always thought was impossible.

The event will be an amazing event, there will be professional judges to score each couple, a 1st, 2nd and 3rd prizes for best dance. We will have entertainment, videos and catering for the event.

We are excited and can not wait. Dance & Make it Happen!
