 Gerry & Jim began Square Dancing in the Fall of 2001. They soon became interested in Round Dancing and joined a Round Dance Club in March of 2002. They have continued taking Round dance lessons weekly since that time. They enjoy dancing various rhythms (Waltz, 2-Step, Foxtrot, Cha Cha, Bolero, Jive, Rumba, Mambo, Quickstep, Slow Two Step, & Tango).In the past, Gerry has cued locally at EOSARDA and SVSRDA dances; at a camping weekends; at T&D (Toronto and District S&RD) Conventions; at International Roundalab Conventions; at a Canadian Convention in Halifax; and recently at the US National Convention. In the Summer of 2006, Gerry and Jim attended the East Coast Leader/Cuer College in Salem, New Hampshire. Realizing the necessity to keep their techniques and knowledge up to date, each year they travel to attend conventions and special dances where they can learn current round dances and upgrade their own skills. Gerry has volunteered to help as a Round Dance Leader for Festival 2014, the Canadian National Square and Round Dance Convention to be held in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. On September 22nd, they will be starting a new daytime Learn to Round Dance Class. They also teach an afternoon Third Year Round Dance Class, and take lessons to advance their own dancing. Gerry & Jim are the resident Cuer Couple for the Capital Steppers Plus club in Ottawa and they have also been invited to cue at The Trackers Plus club in Kanata once a month during the dance season. Dancing keeps us happy, healthy and busy. Gerry and Jim are members of: |
