We'd like to thank Jake Haning for the double-secret swing dance lesson that he gave on Thursday, Oct 21st: our club members thoroughly enjoyed learning the new routine.

The HOTWDC 22^nd Christmas Party was one of the most fun HOTWDC parties in recent memory. There were many dancers and great dance tunes spun by DJ-Joe.

And the audience thoroughly enjoyed the Swing Dance Team led by Joann Hutcheson.

Everyone had a lot of fun dancing at the 22nd Whip Club Anniversary Dance; professionals Carson Watson and Mike Topel added to the entertainment.

Special thanks to Ken Ramsey who as outgoing president of the club announced a new board of directors, including Russ Hart as President and Nancy Ramsey as Treasurer.

A fun time was enjoyed by all on June 30th with Kristy Watson teaching us another wonderful pattern!  We had a good turnout and would like to see some of these part-timers at HOTWDC every week!  After Kristy's class we partook in our traditional pot luck which was followed by a great west coast swing dance! Somewhere in the middle of all the excitement we squeezed in a quiet birthday celebration for our President-no it wasn't for Obama. . . . :)

We are very pleased to announce that we will be honored to have West Coast Swing dance champion Taletha Jouzdani as our guest instructor on Thursday, Sep. 29th, 2011 for our 5th Thursday dance!  Taletha is a two-time US OPEN Jack & Jill finalist who is currently competing in Jack & Jills and Strictlys at the All-Star/Champion level. Taletha has been teaching dance for over 13 years and is currently an instructor at Austin City Dance Club.
