Hi folks

Lots to choose from on Saturday. Bromley Ceroc a dead cert winner, grea=
t dances at Eastbourne and a fun charity event at Leigh. Colin Shaul ha=
s some additional info for his charity event on Saturday, attached to t=
he end of the main text.

Peter Philips of Drop & Jive has just sent this email round:
A good friend of mine is currently at home with an injured back due to =
some moron throwing her into a drop without a thought for her welfare. =
Unfortunately this is not an isolated case and I regularly hear of simi=
lar injuries.Injuries like these are
avoidable and I would like to help any fellow organisers/dancers to ove=
rcome this problem.I think the drops and seducers, executed correctly a=
nd at the right time are great, but in the wrong hands they are a menac=
e. I have been teaching drops & seducers
for a number of years and I'm probably more responsible for these moves=
 being used on the social dance floor than any other teacher. So If I c=
an help in any way to eliminate this problem please call me.

I am preparing a simple do's & don't guide for drops and seducers, whic=
h will be free to all organisers. If you would like some for your venue=
 ? contact me.
Also I am prepared to give a free drops and seducers class with emphasi=
s on safety, at any venue, for any organiser throughout the south & bey=
ond (if travelling costs could be covered I would be grateful)

If you are interested please contact me.
