Aerials with Frank Blueshoes
An aerial is a move where both of one of the partner’s feet leave the floor at the same time. Taken by Frank “Blueshoes” this workshop will cover aerials and “big” moves. With the emphasis on safety and style you will be shown how to perform several different aerials and big moves. Over four hours it will be demonstrated how these moves are about technique and not strength, and how they can be integrated into your dancing. The appropriate circumstances in which to perform aerials will also be covered. Due to the nature of the moves the workshop will feature one on one tuition where necessary.

This workshop is aimed at the more adventurous dancer wanting to try out something more complicated than they would usually encounter. Please note that due to the physical nature of the tuition participants must be fit and uninjured. This will be a fixed partner workhop.

Blues with CJ & Yliander
Blues is a dance form that can be intimidating to some. Beautifully expressive, a combination of musicality and attitude, connection and stillness… Blues dancing is nowhere near as difficult as it looks. This workshop dispels some of the myths, makes blues more accessible, gives emergency blues moves and takes your Blues forward by leaps and bounds. Aimed at those not yet comfortable with Blues or those wanting to take their first steps into this world, it will give techniques, tips and confidence by the bucketful…

Workshops run 1-5pm and will be at the Masonic Hall & Gothenburg Hotel.

Passion of Mariachi Booking Form

We proudly present The Passion of Mariachi: Resurrecting Expressive Dancing!!!!

Come join us for a weekend of Easter Mayhem which sees a selection of the most prominent weekender DJ’s descending on Fife.

Easter Sunday brings a full 6 hours of Mariachi Blues and “Passion” the expressive piano and sax music of Revdrop.

Join us for a weekend of Easter Mayhem which is going to include Full Phat Mariachi on Saturday 3rd April with special guest DJ Blueshoes and an extended 6hr(!) Sunday Tea Dance (4th April) with yet another guest DJ the divine Revdrop. In addition to all that decedent musical goodness there will be workshops Saturday & Sunday.

Saturday is the full Bhuna!! Yep, four hours of Full Phat Mariachi!! Guest DJ Blueshoes and CJ will be taking turns to take you on a fantastic journey… through all genres, an enormous range of tempi, styles and dynamics and of course the On-The-Hour-Experimental-Track… these experienced DJs will guide you, lead you and yet follow you as we dance to a wide range of guitar music just begging to be danced to. Great dancers, great hall, great music…

For six whole hours at the Sunday Tea Dance you will be enveloped, caressed, moved by the intensity, the sensuality and the pure dancability of what is to come… Intense, rich Mariachi Blues, every track a sumptuous treat to all your senses. CJ will play guitar orientated blues whilst Revdrop will massage your very sensibility with his “Passion”… Expressive music featuring piano and/or sax!! Tea/coffee/cakes and Easter treats too!!

Both Blueshoes and Revdrop are respected dancers in their own right. Both have also taught around England as well as made their name at national weekenders. Blueshoes has a reputation as a DJ with taste who plays a wide variety of tunes… He has a real passion for blues and will bring a nice contrast to Mariachi. Revdrop has taken his “Passion” around the country and it has proven very successful. Like Mariachi, “Passion” is all about expressive music, pushing dancers and insiring them to new heights on the dance floor. At previous events, Mariachi and “Passion” have worked very well together, complementing each other and enhancing the evening as a whole.

All this and…Saturday and Sunday workshops too…
