    MJ - Hall of Fame _ Amir & Cat

    I may just be relatively new to all this but I've got the UK Champ 07 DVD and keep watching Amir & Cat doing their showcase routine...

    If I ever get close to being able to dance like that... I'll be a v.happy Rooster...

    I think the expression is "Dream on"

    Nice to see that the spirit of positive encouragement, optimism and nurture is still alive and flourishing on the forum in these troubled times

    Ok so I've looked down the other other Hall of Fame entries and by comparison I think this one might be lacking a bit...... (Oh and Kate should probably get a mention too )

    For coming up with a way to dance argentine tango to decent music

    For focussing on technique and connection

    For a smooth non-bouncy style without semi-circles

    For being willing to teach moves that take months to learn

    For doing Jango showcases / caberats regardless of whether they're going to win and doing a very fine job


    And most importantly for having chocolate cake at the lessons

    And for being brave enough to wear wooly tights to keep his dancin pins warm ( Very wise though!)

    I've met Amir and had loads of fabulous lessons from him. He is a true great and deserves to be in the Hall of Fame.

    I'm not so sure about Cat. I've never met her or had a lesson from her. I've seen her demo a few times and that's it. But I've heard more negative things about her than I have positive. Those negatives have been of a trivial nature, but they've come from more than one source and it's difficult to ignore the groundswell of opinion. I'm not going to repeat them here because they are not my opinion and would, therefore, be heresay. On the subject of Cat I have no opinion because I've not seen enough first-hand.

    Does anybody have something good to say about Cat to balance the negative but trivial things I've heard? It's always nice to strike a balance and we need to hear the good stuff
