LIVE MUSIC - SHOWS, CONCERTS AND DANCE EVENT ORGANISATION
My Dancing history goes right back to my early teens
...I
started dancing seriously when I was 14 years old..my mother was an accomplished dancer and taught me the rudiments of Ballroom dancing. The dancing bug bit me and very soon I was into 'proper ' dance classes three or four times a week ...using the money that I had earnt doing my 'paper round' at the local newsagents. After a few years I reached medal standard. In my late teens and early twenties I competed in Ballroom and Latin competitions in the South-West of the UK with some small success... I was fortunate to also dance at some of the BBC 'Come Dancing' series venues and at the glorious Tower Ballroom in Blackpool. I have been dancing to Ballroom and Latin most of my adult life and never made any secret of the fact that this genre of dancing is my first love Always will be... no doubt of that..
I got involved with organising events OVER 40 years ago helping out the late great Roy Whatley and his monthly dances at Grange Leisure. In 2000 I started to dance Modern Line Dancing for a while...thanks to tjhe wife. I even got into choreography for 14 years...mostly to Latin music and rhythms... as I found that there weren't many choreographers covering that genre at all.
In 2012 I started the organisation named
STARDUST DANCE PROMOTIONS
working to raise money for national and local charities...so far we have raised nearly £40,000 at the end of 2023..THIS YEAR SHOULD SEE IT TOPPLE OVER THE £45,000 MARK...in August we are re-branding to
STARDUST EVENTS
it will make life a bit easier.
Welcome to AUGUST 2024 and our new improved website. This site has had a complete overhaul.
Nothings changed apart from the title.. re-branded for our EVENT ORGANISATION genre. It's NOT just about DANCE anymore... it's ALL sorts of things and events.
This is my lovely wife Glenys...who has been my whole life for the past 58 years. She is my dance partner, wife, soul mate, the love of my life and defintely my best friend
.
We are cutting down our dance weekends involvement in 2023 mainly to concentrate on the many charity events that are the main focus of our publicity and promotion side of our busy dancing programme.
IT'S WHO WE ARE - AND WHAT WE DO BEST... OVER
40 YEARS EXPERIENCE
IN ORGANISIG EVENTS LARGE AND SMALL... WE CAN TAILOR YOUR NEEDS AS REQUIRED.
