It was all about the Samba dance!! . .
Firstly we reviewed everything from Lesson #8 (still posted, so you can look it up), but . . we made a slight change on the last pattern - the Copa Compasso . . .
1) Instead of just '1' 5th position break to start - we did '2' - one to the L (guys), and then one to the R. (*This is - a side step (L), toe to heel (R), and then step L foot in place. Then just repeat the same starting side to R.
Then . . Measure 3, 4, 5 doing the Copas (traveling to the Man's left. Side break on the 6th measure, and then xss outside foot (L for the man) over & step xss & in front of the R foot, R foot back, xssover w/L, R foot back - to '9 & 2'. Then, step back into a back 1/2 of a box step, side together. DON'T WORRY!!! - TOTAL REVIEW ON NEXT LESSON!
On the last week of dance lessons We have a "wrap up party". Dance classes are not open to the public – members or guests only.
All students bring a food item – ie: appetizers, quartered sandwiches, veggies, or whatever. All foods are placed on tables at the front, and everyone helps themselves buffet style at intermission.
Students can bring their own water, pop, or juice.
