CAP-10 | Health & Fitness After School Ballroom Dance Program

What: Health & Fitness After School Ballroom Dance Program for Elementary School Students (grades 1st through 5th)

When: Starting in 2009 (dates TBA)

Where: Elementary schools throughout the Dallas-Ft. Worth TX area (others TBA)

As a TV producer, educator and a ballroom dancer that helped train over 6,000 DFW elementary kids in the last 4 years...I am one of a team that has decided to attack the lack of exercise problem through the beauty and fun of Ballroom Dance.

Additionally, we provide printed information on TOTAL HEALTH & FITNESS, and have included lessons on nutrition, dangers of tobacco and other drugs, etc.

We've taken a successful state wide program for Social Workers & RN's with a story of a Dolphin called Cap10. We've rewritten it for kids and added cartoons for visual aids.

One suggestion for this after school program is to charge $2 a week for 10 weeks, for both dance lessons and printed materials. Additional adult dances can be added for $10 each. Other ideas and suggestions are welcome.

RIP COLORING CONTEST

Golden Meadow Elementary School Tango Dance students that have colored their RIP Cartoons & turned them in can have their friends & family email their votes.

Only 2 votes per email address please. As student names aren't on the cartoons just use numbers.

Like "Dancing with the Stars"...50% of the vote will be the emails & the other 50% of the count will be by judges that know art. Votes can come in all summer until school starts.

Hope to see you in the fall.

Golden Meadows Dance Instructors

The following are pictures of David & Nancy who gave tango lessons to 4th graders at Golden Meadows school in May & June of 09.

They were taken from a video for a Public Service Announcement for cancer awareness ...a more adult version of tango than the one we showed the children.

We selected just a few pictures in motion or "frames" from 1,000s* to show the children, their parents & others interested...the beauty & passion of ballroom dance!

*Video cameras shoot 30 "frames" per seconds or 1,800 per minute. So a 5 minute P.S.A. has 1,000s of fast moving, hair flying frames.
