'Dance at 8' Worcestershire's' Australian 'New Vogue Style' Ballroom Sequence

View 'Dance at 8' Worcestershire's' Australian 'New Vogue Style' Ballroom Sequence on DanceWeb DanceWeb

Website Logo Oct06.png What is Australian 'New Vogue Style' Ballroom?
'Dance at 8's' Australian 'New Vogue Style' Ballroom is a subtle blend of American Smooth and European Ballroom resulting in an exciting Sequence style which enables dancers to express themselves using arm head and body moves within a set sequence of variations.
'Dance at 8' dancers love to dance American Smooth, but never really have the room to dance full out at Dances or Practice Sessions due to the nature of Smooth.
'New Vogue Style' works in a similar fashion to Sequence where all couples start and finish a 16 or 32 bar routine in the same position. The difference is, during the routine there are many options with arm, head and body positions making your routine sometimes quite different than the other couples.
Dancers will also have the chance to learn more advanced variations which in the past would not have been included in Modern Sequence routines.
'Dance at 8' will be launching 'New Vogue Style' Ballroom (Waltz & Tango) classes on Wednesday, August 12th from 8:30- 9:30pm in Malvern, Worcestershire at Club Dance UK. (WR14 1BY). Classes led by Professional Dance Champion and Coach Paul Pritchard from Dance at 8. So if you want to try something new and would like to inject some Real Style into your dancing, this is for you!
Sessions are £4 per person. Everyone welcome regardless of where you currently dance. For more information phone 'Dance at 8' ~ Worcestershire on 01386 556 665 or visit www.danceat8.com For Maps & Directions

Tap dancer sets new Guinness World Record™

View Tap dancer sets new Guinness World Record™ on DanceWeb DanceWeb

TA_Logo and feet_v02.jpg Tap dancer and choreographer Jo Scanlan has broken the world record to be crowned the world’s fastest tap dancer.

Jo of Swindon (England), smashed the existing record of 602 beats in a minute by 182 beats, during the “Boys V Girls” section of Sky 1's “Guinness World Records Smashed” on June 7 2009 setting a new and unprecedented Guinness World Record™ of 784.

To make the record attempt all that more difficult Jo was up against her student Joe Dodd from London, who is also a member of the England Tap Team, which Jo is head coach and co-artistic director of. "Joe Dodd is a phenomenally gifted young dancer, he is part of the England Tap Team which I coach, and was ranked 12th at the 2008 World Championships, so to be up against him made it all that more difficult to obtain the record “.

Jo has been tap dancing since she was 7, initially in the UK and then furthered her training after being awarded several scholarships to study in America. She has had opportunity to study privately and in residence with Dr Henry Le Tang, Dr Bunny Briggs, Barbara Duffy and Heather Cornell as well as taking master classes with Jason Samuels Smith, Arthur Duncan and Fayard Nicholas.

Jo now works as a performer, teacher and choreographer at some of the UK’s leading vocational establishments and runs tap company “Tap Attack” as well as training the “Tap Attack Youth Company”.
