I find this a personal affront really.

After hours of training and dedication to my art I recently only managed to come 97th in the NE Lancashire championships.

The judges felt that my reinterpretation of the Black Wednesday 1992 sterling crisis through the medium of dance was not quite what they were looking for.

That Kev Roberts knows nothing !

Rod, your'e not doing yourself any justice here, I think if a re-count was in order you'd have been placed 96th

Instead of marketing as a Northern Soul dance tutorial , she would probably get more custom as a Northern Soul keep fit guru .

You must’ve been Modern Soul shuffling instead of Northern Soul stomping Rod. Too many dancers get their shuffling and stomping muddled up…

The payment plan buttons look enticing, but the privacy policy, terms and conditions are an unreadable minefield! I think I'll leave it.

I think those are a boilerplate cut & paste from another website since they cover stuff she isn't offering and don't cover what she is.

In the unlikely event anyone would report her to trading standards and the even more unlikely event they'd have time/manpower to deal with a complaint then her terms/privacy policy are pretty much a fine example of what NOT to do.

Not to forget - Really poor spacing, random capitalisation throughout and contradictory terms.

She'd have a fairly major issue in trying to enforce those terms on any customer.

I've been dancing and going to nights for about a year now, As much as I agree that yes, It does help people to get the confidence to go out on the floor by showing them something introductory, I don't feel like that should cost £150.

£150 quid mate, that's 5 beers, £10 entrance, a £60/70 quid record in your bag...and a bit of change...and bus fare home

buggar the dancing, you can sit and gurn at the dancefloor all night for that money...

I am a crap dancer do I need lessons ? No , I'm great at being a crap dancer . 

Looks like the Divs have won . A few years ago we were all discussing New Blood well this is what it looks like .  Be careful what you wish for folks .

Guess that depends on your level of knowledge and how many genres of this wonderful music you’re into. Good  example the other day when a mate of mine played this at the Dalmeny Weekend. Never heard it before and it cost me the princely sum of £4.99 to get a minter. Anyway always going to buy records over dance classes.

This one same era , something for the younger soulies to search for perhaps , whilst it's still available,

.50p for now just takes a brave young soul to play it and boom they'll all want a copy , also available on the Spring Label .
