Season 2012/13 is over!!!  Here's our Summer Calendar .  Finished up our critique sheet for this year!  Please let me know what you thought about all the teaches this year!!!! 

Hurd's 2012-13 End of Year Critique!


We have set up a Life Saving Class to start up the 2013/14 Season.  It will be conducted at Leisure World, Rec #2 by the Mesa Fire Dept Training Dept.  It's free and we hope that lots of the Mesa Dancers will participate!  It will be on Wednesday, 22 Oct 2013 at 1:00pm.  Please let me (gphurd@aol.com) or Larry Tracht know if you want to attend!!


Do you need a little extra help remembering some of the dances?  We've set up a new program with the help of David Sanford (& Toni's video taping!).  Read this flyer for more info: Hurd's Instructional Video Library.  And here's the link to the new website: 

www.dancerounds.info/IVL/       


Something else that's new!!!  We are going to start a Social Ballroom Class!  Should be great fun!  If you are already a social dancer, come by and learn some new amalgamations to add to your repertoire.  If you haven't tried Social dancing, come on out and see how easy it is!!!

Greenfield Village - Starting Wednesday, November 14th at 7:00pm!  We will plan on working on 2 rhythms each week.  Cost is $5 per person per session. 

Here's the Flyer:  Social Ballroom Class

  I have been using this and LOVE IT!!!  Don't know how it works, but have enjoyed the money I am getting back from online purchases!!!

 

Well Hello There! Thanks for visiting our Site. We are George & Pamela Hurd. George & I retired in Anchorage, Alaska in 1998 and are now traveling full time. We live in a 45’ Monaco Executive RV with 4 slides and are following the best dancing and/or the best weather. We love this life style and will continue for the foreseeable future. We love to make friends, but we have found that it’s really hard leaving them. Since we will be on the road all the time, we decided to use a Web Site to share the exciting places and people we find while we travel. We will update our page at least monthly, reviewing what we’ve done and listing our future plans. As we dance around the US (and the world), we’ll provide an update of dances we learn and report on festivals that we attend and our own upcoming events. 

Read all about us on our downloadable brochure!

Come back again soon!
