Ladies,
would you like to be the "belle of the ball" but fear
making a scene in that work-of-art ballgown and mind-of-its-own
hoop skirt?
Gentlemen,
do you have more than just two left feet when the fiddlers start
to warm up and you feel that familiar lace gloved hand pull
on your arm?
Here
are just a few questions Miss Jillian has received from American
civil war dancers:
Q:
My hoop is e-normous and I'm afraid I can't dance partner-like
with my husband very close.
A:
I will teach you both how to work with your hoop so that it
does not take on a "life of its own" and you can enjoy
your dancing in your beautiful ballgown and look good too!
Q:
My brogans make me feel like I've got two left feet and I'm
afraid I'll step on her dainty shoes and be in the dog house
for days.
A:
If you dance the steps as I will show them we can make sure
that you have plenty of room to dance and she gets out of your
way and no one but the dog is in the dog house!
Step
back in time... to an age of manners, polite conversation, white
gloves and shined boots -- when men were gentlemen and women
were ladies. Jillian teaches steps and dances appropriate for
anything from an outdoor evening romp in the grass under tall
trees and hanging lanterns to a gracious holiday cotillion with
all the finest trimmings.
Learn
to country waltz, kick up your heels with a schottische or two
and polka with impunity. Jillian can also familiarize you with
the Virginia Reel, Texas Star, and other vivacious group dances
as well as partnered dances with timeless charm.
