Started in 1995

I am from Sydney and first started line dancing in 1995 with Yvonne Hammond from Peninsular Bootscooters in NSW. My first choreographed dance happened just a few months after I started dancing. I have had a passion for choreography ever since. The same year I started line dancing (1995), I began teaching with Peninsular Bootscooters. In 1996 I started classes in the Frenchs Forest area and named our group “In Line Boots”.

I am kept busy with eight classes a week from beginners to Intermediate. During my 27 years of line dancing, I have been involved with the local Country Music Club Concerts at the Belrose Bowling Club 2002 till 2015 and then at the Pittwater RSL since September 2015. I also headed the line dancing at the very beginning of Northern Beaches Country Music Concerts held from 2007 till June 2013. I lead the Line dancing at both clubs with my “In Line Boots” group. This also includes some team demos.

During these years my successful choreography and teaching has resulted in many invitations to do workshops, socials and judging both in NSW and interstate.

Some of my more recent dances are Out On The Farm, Crazy Baby 4U, Lady In The Park, Que Sera, Come Out Tonight, Budapest, Big Country Sky, Window Of Roses, Not Over You, But Baby.

Other very popular dances are: Just A Two Step Away,  Alibis, That Don’t Impress Me Much, Their Heart’s Are Dancing, Till It Snows In Mexico, Beautiful Senorita, Wings Of A Honky Tonk Angel, Cadillac Tears, Don’t Touch My Heart, Trembling Lips, You’ve Got No Heart, Just Got To Stay, When Love Starts Talking, Louisiana Melody, Freewheeler, All Day Long, Rock & Roll Kiss, Little Rock, Paper, Scissors, Workin’, Just Across The Rio Grand, Let’s Start Livin’, Louisiana Blue, Just Call Me Lonesome, I Know You’re Gonna Be There, New Girl In Town, Steelin’ the 2 Step, Take It Easy, Oklahoma Wind and gold medals for Choreography at the Australian Line Dancing Championships in 2006. They are Honky Tonk Girl and It’s OK Now (waltz) and Better Than Leaving (below).
