Workshop With Niels (JB) - 12-12-10

Finally am able to steal some time to quickly recount the past weekend's event.....Dance for Good Health, Peace & Joy 2010, an annual event organised by the Lim sisters in Johor Baru. The event is entirely free to line dancers and fully sponsored by Dr JP Lim and her sisters, also affectionately known as Bunga Raya on FB :)

This year, we were all treated to the presence of a tall cool Dane.....no I'm not referring to the Carlsberg beer...hahaha, but the dashing & affable choreographer from Denmark, Niels Poulsen :)

Last year I'd driven down to JB with my husband. This year, I decided to join the gang and went by coach.....all 39 of us. People with similar objectives and passion make for great travel companions. It was FUN & laughter all the way there and back! :)

Crazy bunch! Great fun! :)

Line dancers from around the region turned up......Singapore, Australia & Indonesia.

Wanda & Linda from Perth

So did notable choreographers such as Philip Sobrielo, John Ng and Amy Christian-Sohn.

Everyone burned the dance floor from 10am to 6pm, with intermittent breaks for performances.

After wrapping up the event, we adjourned for dinner with Niels and the Lim sisters and finally bade goodbye to all our dear line dance friends at about 8pm. We reached KL a few minutes past midnight, tired.....but happy....and already looking forward to next year's event. :)
Thank You to the LIM SISTERS & NIELS for a great event & wonderful memories!
