Hey Dancers!

(1st most important thing: dance session will be on as usual this Thursday, 2nd October and is conducted by our dearest Dance Cap't Willy.)

Next, we have...

There will be a DanceFuzion outing this coming Friday, 3rd October, if within NTU is considered an outing to you.

Details:

-Runners participating in Barker's Run will be holding a training session at SRC from around 7pm to 8pm.
Those who want to sweat it out are most welcome to join us. Nothing beats having a good workout at the end of the week, followed by a refreshing shower and yummy dinner, right?

-No worries, the outing is not the training session but feel free to join. At 8pm, we will be having dinner at one of the halls where you can find the most delicious food (Suggestions anyone?) Those who want to meet earlier to warm up your tummies can always make your own arrangements.

-Now's the real FUN part. After dinner, we will have a movie marathon/movie screening at one of our dancer's halls. Genres include horror, comedy, thriller. (suggestions are welcomed) Bring your blankets along to hide underneath if you must. For timid hearts, don't you worry, we have comedy to perk you up! We will rent about 3 or 4 movies and Alvin, our Logistics Manager has gone the extra mile and put in a MASSIVE effort to secure a projector for our quality viewing.
Movie suggestions include "Shutter", "White-Chick", and....hmmm.. yea hha we'll need more suggestions from you or Chai Huat will decide what to rent.
I doubt our bodies can last the length of the movies but hey, prove us wrong by showing us your stamina. If you're still energetic, you can indulge in Mahjong with Alvin after that.

..email to let me (Chris) know so i can keep track of who is coming for the outing. Do not hesitate to email in any questions you have about he outing to. We are also open to suggestions as to where to have our dinner, what movies to watch and activities of next morning.

Looking forward to scaring ourselves/laughing our lungs out on Friday.

Cheers,
Chris
Secretary
DanceFuzion


Yep, that's that! Thks to dear Chris's kindness for allowing reproduction of his email xD

Seeya all on Thurs 6.30pm and movie marathon-ers on Fri =)

Also, the usage of room MUST be related to activities of dancefuzion.

Thanks!

heyhey,

yes yes, we know that Minister Lee juz announced that the economy wont be doing well...BUT!!! dont let that stop you from joining us juz becoz we are here to collect money from you before the second dance session! what we are offering here is the best deals exclusively for you!

For all dance members (all who are wishing to continue dancing sessions with us), please kindly make Yani- our treasurer's job easier by bringing along $20 and also initiate to pass the money to her during the upcoming dance session on Wednesday 13th Aug 2008. For those who forget, you shall face a penalty of treating each comm member a drink from the NIE canteen....*wahaha...looking foward!!! of course if too many of you forgot, we shall be lenient and accept other treats too!

I'm not here to try and HARD SELL our club's membership. But I hope all of you understand that the membership fees entitles you to a lifetime membership in DanceFuzion, or as long as the club operates, and also FREE dance sessions from August 2008 to Dec 2008 (1 academic semester). Of course during exam periods and holidays, we cancel dance practices but it still totals up to almost 20 sessions of professional coaching by Carol and Willy! On top of enjoying dance sessions at the average price of $1 per session, what you learn and receive would be much more...*thinking of gatherings with the club members and the friendship you've sought all your life and the opportunities to perform or even compete...

i hope the above have already justified the amount that we are imposing on all of you. We seek your cooperation and please do enjoy urself more to make all your money worth!

As the Grand Welcome approaches, the stress at the back of our mind increases...the need to get our steps in place and to put up a great show, all of us are attending dance sessions between tight schedules. Dark eye rings are already showing up on those who are already on practicum like me. Yet the passion to bring greatness to all audience is the motivation behind all these effort. I've uploaded videos for reference especially for those seeking improvement...

*WAVES....

Hello!!!

Has anyone checked the blog for updates already???

We had our first day of registration for post grad today and our booth received some great response...Keep it up ppl!!!

Firstly, I would like to take the opportunity to represent all members from DanceFuzion to say "Welcome" to all who are interested and took the effort to come check out our blog...This blog is one of my "masterpiece" till date with all the dancing updates...hope they can entertain for a while...

Anyway my purpose here today is to provide more information about this club *if there wasn't enough provided when at the booth or in other tabs of this blog...

FAQ

Q: When will the dance sessions be held?
A: Dance sessions will usually be held on weekday evenings after most of our lessons. The committee will try all means to help select a timeslot that is most comfortable for all of us. 2 sessions will be held each week- one taught by Carol Cheong and another taught by Willy.

Q: Where will sessions be held?
A: Dance practices are held either in the sports room or dance room...if there are other interesting venues available, we'll try to hold it there too!

Q: How much do we need to pay?
A: Membership fees is $20 per semester- grab this good deal fast as each dance lesson in private dance schools cost $20/session.

Q: What if I do not have any dance background?
A: DO NOT START WORRYING AT ALL!!! In dancefuzion, we do not need you to be auditioned to enter and we ddefinitely don't segregate our members according to dancing abilities!!! We are all in DanceFuzion to learn! Instructors here respects not only our diversified background but also our learning style and ability...they do foundation techniques too to help you progress. So long as you feel you have a passion in dancing and am willing to commit then we don't see why you shouldn't join!

Q: When will the sessions commence?
A: Proper dance sessions held in school will commence when the semester starts (in Aug 08). However, if you already have this burning urge to join us now, we'll welcome you!!! Sessions will be held in Studio Wu every Thursday at 3.30pm-5.00pm. You might also get the chance to perform during the Grand Welcome when all freshies are sitting in the audience seat and you are up on stage performing already!!!

Q: What type of dance do you all do?
A: We do mainly Hip Hop, some street Jazz, some old school, some krumpling even!!!

any other questions? Post it on the tag! We'll reply you asap...

For interested parties, please express you interest by emailing us at nie.dancefuzion@gmail.com. We'll update you through email on the details of the dance sessions held during the holidays!

We hope to see your reply soon!

We know that some of you might not be sure of the route to the studio.

Hi Hip-Hop Dancers of this great df kingdom,

First of all, a million thanks to those who came for last session on Monday (10th March 2008)! We certainly hope that you had enjoyed the session with Carol. Just a reminder on our next dance session:

============================================

Date/Day: 13th March 2008(Thursday)

Time: 6:30pm to 8pm

Venue: NIE Dance Room (Block 5, Level 2)

Instructor: Willy Ong (Diploma PE Year 1)

Attire: Casual, comfortable, loose clothing, minus footwear (As hip hop as possible!)

============================================

As mentioned by both Rachel and Faizal, we are collecting membership fees for joining the club (royalty) and they are really affordable and a great bargain! Here's the breakdown of fees:

==============================================================

1. For current members and those who just joined after 6 March (NIE/NTU)à $15

2. For foreign exchange students from NTU (till April) à $10

==============================================================

Wait! There's another perk! For such affordable rates, the amount is valid for one SEMESTER! Which means u pay for 6-months' worth of dance professional lessons and many opportunities for learning and performing! Where else can u get such deal right? *smiles* *tempted again yeah?

Our treasurer (Yani) shall start collecting the fees from this Thursday ( 13th March 2008) onwards. So please remember to bring cash!!! No nets, credit card or cheque allowed!

Do visit our club's blog @ http://dancefuzion.blogspot.com for more info and updates. Hope to see you guys this Thursday!

Welcome to the DF kingdom!!!

Willy wasn't around for the very first practice when we welcome some new faces in the club... And our dearest Cikgu Faizal polished his steps the previous day so that he can take on the role of coaching!

Although the choreograph wasn't new to some of them, all of us were sporting and had a great time...at least i did...*the dance room was stuffy la...and all that work out is making me sweat!

BUT!!! Looking at the calories being burnt, it's all worth it...opps...Anyway here to share pics taken during the practise...















Nice right...? Aren't you all like tempted to join by now? Come la!

btw all in pink are my own opinions la..
