Dance Cafe' - Dance in Kelowna - part 2

(published in Sept/07 OA Magazine uneditted copy)

Dance is actively growing. We have amazing talent in various styles of couples social dance.

My initiation into dance 12 years ago was with Diane Pratt from Toronto. Trained in International Ballroom and Latin in England, she competed and trained Canadian & North American Latin champions before coming to Kelowna. She showcases performances annually and is invited to judge competitions. ‘Diane's Dancesport' teaches all levels. ‘Let's Dance Kelowna' was formed as a practice venue open to the community. (862-8063)

Also trained in England, we are fortunate to have Warren Eaton specializing in International Latin. Warren became part of the neighborhood contribution to Volta's charm on his 2004 arrival to Kelowna. A short jaunt over between studio lessons, he could be found with his favorite Volta salad and pomegranate soda. Warren's ‘Latinesque' students have been sweeping top competitive placements. (www.latinesque.com) At this writing, Kelowna's first International style Ballroom & Latin dance studio is in the works. Hmm.. more on that later!

Warren & Diane have partnered in spectacular performance showcases.

The valley is alive with dance, brimming with opportunity and talent, which I hope to introduce in ‘Dance Café'. Watch for features on amazing real people who dance - they may be your friends and neighbors!

A dance enthusiast, I supply dance shoes and have returned to Interior Design and Staging.
