Dance Conmigo teaches WCS private and group classes in Montreal
Ici le programme de WCS 1 Chez Dance Conmigo/ Here is Dance Conmigo level 1 WCS program.
In this video we are celebrating Catherine's Birthday. Catherine have been part of the Dance Conmigo WCS regulars ever since 2008. Thank you Catherine for your presence and your energy. You have contribute greatly to the success of WCS in Montreal.
One of the most beautiful things about being a dance teacher it the process of continuous learning and teaching what we learn. This is probably the best job in earth. The social life is amazing. Always surrounded by wonderful people. The gratification of sharing all this wonderful moments in person and in video is beyond believe. Thank you students and dance partner for making dancing such a lovely activity.
In our WCS community we celebrate the birthday of our regulars by doing a Westie Jam. At this time we celebrated the birth day of Nicolas. Happy birth day Nicolas.
In a Westie Jam the celebrated person usually stay in the circle for the duration of one song and, rather than dance with one partner, he/she will swap partners many times throughout the song.
West Coast Swing Dance Practices take place every Tuesday 8:30-10:30PM at Dance Conmigo. Open to everyone curious or interested in WCS.
I can not say with certainty if the WCS practice started on 2008 or 2009. This was not important because WCS was totally unknown in Montreal. There were a few ardent promoters but there was no venue or structure of classes nor consistency.
During the first and second year, there were many practices nights with only 2 attendants, then 4, then 6 and so on. At few occasion we were considering giving up, but some ardent enthusiasts (Bonnie Mak among others) insisted to give it more time.
Eventually, there were more than 10 regular dancers coming every Tuesday. At that moment , we began to feel that we had turned the corner and that there was a potential to have a regular WCS dance practice in Montreal every Tuesday night.
Thank you Montreal WCS dancers for making this evening such a pleasant event.
In our WCS community at Dance Conmigo, we celebrate a person's birth day by doing a westy circle. The DJ (Cheryl Williams) put a song and every one tries to get a dance withe the birthday person.
We wish you many more years of dancing Dominque
When we are a dancer, we have an alternative life, a life where we share moments of joy, for laughter, of intimacy; a life in which we forget our worries and for short periods of time, we can be just happy. When we become dancers, we take the conscious decision to be happy and worry free for three minutes at a time.
