your calendars and plan to attend a fun-filled weekend in New York City – January 4-6, 2008. Enjoy the City at one of
the neatest times of year – shopping on 5th Avenue, Ice Skating in Rockefeller Center, Dining in some of the best restaurants
in the world, Carriage Rides in Central Park and great theatre!! Top all of that off with the 60th Gala Celebration and it’s
a weekend not to be missed!
Following two days of the NDCA bi-annual meeting, we will begin the day on Saturday, January
5th with the Organizers Meeting from 9-11am. All NDCA Organizers are invited to attend.
Noon to 4pm will be the United
States Dance Sport Congress featuring lectures/workshops from our top couples and coaches. This is FREE to everyone.
The
Gala Evening will commence at 6pm with cocktails and dinner at 7pm. Details on the dinner (and also hotel information) will
be forthcoming.
Following the dinner will begin an evening to remember, featuring –

couples . Scholarships in all categories – Pro/Am, Amateur, Junior, Youth, Rising Star Professional, Open Professional
. United States Dance Sport Hall of Fame Awards . Special Awards and Acknowledgements . Special Awards to our television

The NDCA is one of the oldest organizations of its kind
in the world and we are proud to reach this milestone, but we know that we would not exist without you and the countless many
who have contributed and supported this organization over the last 6o years.
We look forward to sharing past memories,
present successes and future goals with all of you. We hope you will join us to unite and celebrate our wonderful world of
dance in the United States.

I had such a great dance-watching night last night! First I went to yet another of the Guggenheim’s Works & Process events, this time to hear choreographer / artistic director Christopher Wheeldon talk about his new company, Morphoses, which, I know, I just can’t shut up about and am likely driving everyone crazy with! (But at least I’m not the only one! Also, Philip has an interview up with Morphoses choreographer Edwaard Liang, who was supposed to dance last night but unfortunately did not.)
I just think Wheeldon is such a genius, at least in terms of his choreography ...more see Swan Lake Samba Girl....
