In the last half hour of Monday's dance session, we will dance your requests!
Possible request dances are the dances we have finished teaching in the program.
These dances are listed below and also in the bottom half of the Current Program webpage. (The program will be listed there in a few days)
Please choose your requests and let me know as soon as possible at surreyfolkdance@gmail.com
to help us have the dances practiced and the dance lists ready to go!
This is October! And that means we will be having a Halloween Party!
I fondly remember the Witches' Dance (Schüttel deinen Speck)
we danced at our Halloween party in 2020.
Stacy Rose taught it to us (at her own sessions)
and Halloween 2021 is our chance to dance it again!
If you want to learn it before the party,
please attend Stacy's sessions if you can. All the details are here
Instruction is every Thursday evening in October for a half hour at 8pm PT.
Starts tomorrow!
If that time is not possible: YouTube instruction is here.
2020/21 Season is on Video and Accessible!
There have been some requests to re-teach dances taught last season.
I don't need to do that because you can watch the teaching from last year! Watching the video is just like being there.
The link with ALL the sessions from August 2020 to August 2021 is: https://bit.ly/sifd2020season
The spreadsheet ".SIFD Zoom Season 2020-21 Times of the Dances" lists all the dates and times of all the dances taught. Each session has its own folder.
For example: In the spreadsheet, you will find that the complete teaching of Libi is on July 15, 2021, 36 minutes into the video. I spend a half hour thoroughly teaching the dance. The next week there is a review that is 20 minutes long.
Use <ctrl>F or <cmd>F on a Mac to search the spreadsheet for a particular dance. For your personal use only please.
