Dancing like a blob, Arthur and Jerri July 3 & 5

July 3

Today we had 6 teens with a lot of old people;  ARCAC's upstairs space was packed!  Everyone had to watch out for swinging arms...
l. to r.: Phil, Pauline, Judy
 Coming across the floor:

Layla & Diana

Maria & Zach

Ben & Pam




Soul singers Maggie Rene and Layla, with back-up by Gerri and Sally. Smooth  moves by Diana, Maria, Ben, and Zach.


Randy and Pam work out some of the choreography

Randy: How about this?

Pam: You mean like this?

Randy: No, like this...

Pam:  Hmmm































 'Yo Tengo' with the big group was interesting; some of the dancers had never done it before, and it's a long (for us) sequence of steps.   Randy was, as always, patient in the extreme.

We then tried moving like a blob...all at once, while waving arms and stepping side to the side, to the front, to a diagonal.  Next we played follow the leader.   No photos of this yet; too busy trying not to swat someone with an errant arm.

July 5
No little sub-tropical storm can stop DITTA dancers!  8 seniors, plus Randy, Pam, and Maggie Rene showed up on Saturday.  Never mind the wind and rain, the downed trees, power lines,  and closed roads, the 140,000 Nova Scotians without electricity;  we came, we danced, we roared with laughter at Jerri's 'lap' dance with Maggie Rene.  Here's the video link:















and now it's Randy's turn...
 


  In the meantime..

Left and right and left and right...
 






Lord, give me strength!!!
