Lone Star Championships - January 23-25, 2009
Dun dun DUHHHH!!! Lone Star Championships is back for our second year! This year promises to have more exciting competitions and performances, amazing workshops from some of the world's finest dancers and instructors, and of course, ridiculous amounts of social dancing.
So mark January 23-25th, 2009 on your calendar, put it on your refrigerator, write it on your forehead... because you do NOT want to miss out!
Here are just four of the many reasons why:
Nina Gilkenson.
Carla Heiney.
Mike Faltesek.
Mikey Pedroza.
What what what? Yes, these are our headlining instructors for Lone Star '09! If you don't know who they are (for shame! :) then check out their bios / pics / videos on our workshops page:
http://www.lonestarchampionships.com/workshops.php
We also have a good deal of other information up there as well. Check it out. And we will see you in Austin in January!
-- Tena Morales, Scott Angelius, and Don West
http://www.lonestarchampionships.com/
PS. Here is what one 2008 attendee had to say: "If you asked me, I will say that Lone Star was the most successful dance event. It was well organized and there was not a dull moment. I had never seen more smiles on peoples faces than at that amazing weekend."
