Some emails received after the last Swing Pit weekend that also had a workshop on the same day:
Hey, So much fun on Sunday. What a great night full of fun and friendly people. I loved it.
Brilliant floor guys...so much room to dance...had a Ball. I can't even dance yet but was fun trying!
I am still kind of recovering from the week end. The workshop is been wonderful. The dancing was exciting, the music great, people lovely/nice/interesting, teachers were super. And you were absolutely fantastic during
the classes. Also during the night dances on sunday I met the person who kind of took me to the swing.
The man I was dancing (he's not a swingpatroler) was the first person I've ever danced swing with. It was in a very bizarre venue I was with a friend (he's a deejay). It's a very funny story, I'll tell you. Well basically that night I surprisingly enjoyed that dance and the day after I started looking for swing classes in London (I even found a video with this guy dancing) and then ... Silvia came with her swing dance class news. And that's how I found you. So seeing this guy sunday night was really exciting for me. Kind of symbolic. Finally, the whole w.e. was layers on layers of trilling emotions, with some other private events squeezed in. Sunday night I had so much adrenaline I wasn't able to sleep, despite of the lack of sleep and rest and food of the previous days. But I was actually exhausted. Monday morning I woke up and it was like been come back from a long trip.
Thanks God I had to work hard this week so I can finally rest from all this excitement. Speak soon,
But their excitement to tap and jump is irrepressible!
By the way, I loved the musicality workshop. I think it's something beautiful and quite natural. But then I start thinking of it and it becomes so difficult. !! How are you after all the excitement of the weekend? Thanks so much - it was all
brilliant - I had so much fun but am fit for nothing today. Last night was fantastic but I had the journey from hell to get home (over an hour and a half - ouch) so yet again here I am half asleep at the desk wondering if there's a way of getting the coffee irectly into my blood stream.
What a great night yesterday was! Sadly I work on Saturday until 7pm and don't quite feel I deserve time off yet. Thank you for the invite anyhow. J
