Toronto English Country Dancers present :

A Weekend with Colin Hume and Foxfire

Friday June 18 to Sunday June 20, 2010

Saturday Workshop for Advanced Dancers

Please read this carefully so that you can decide which workshops and dance sessions will give you the most enjoyment during the Weekend with Colin Hume and Foxfire.

Colin’s Saturday morning session will be a challenging one, for very experienced ECD dancers: it requires a high degree of confidence in your ability to perform basic figures (for some examples, please see the list below). Dancers will be expected to do these figures without assistance and without teaching. Walk-throughs will be brief and some dances may be talk-through only.

Some basic ECD moves

1. double figure of eight
2. double 1/2 figure of eight
3. Rights and Lefts with hands and without twiddles
4. crossover mirror hey
5. open ladies' chain
6. cloverleaf turn single
7. double progression
8. triple minor progression

If you aren’t already completely comfortable with these figures, you will feel frustrated in this particular workshop. However, we are glad you’re interested, and want you to enjoy your weekend, so please come to the other dances and workshops!
