Lonestar Championships in Austin January 15-17th, 2010 Get ready for the Lone Star Championships, January 15th-17th, 2010, an unbeatable social/party/competition event weekend in Austin, TX. Lone Star is a high quality event where social dancing all night, inspired competitions and amazing workshops are the norm! They have well over 20 hours of social dancing planned and all of the competitions are social dance competitions - Jack and Jills and Strictlys. The judges don't want to see routines or a bunch of planned stuff... so no stress on your part, no need to prepare a routine, just come enjoy the weekend. Don't miss out on the fantastic line-up with workshops by Nina Gilkenson, Carla Heiney, Laura Glaess, Nick Williams, Todd Yannacone, Mike Faltesek, and Mikey Pedroza. Registration is only $99 until December 2nd! This is going to be a great event you won't want to miss! Lone Star supports the idea that competitions bring us together to push and inspire each other to grow as dancers and as a community, with a healthy dose of support and cheer for each other. Lone Star has created a space for all Lindy Hoppers to perform and compete with like-leveled dancers - from newcomers who have never competed, all the way up to the top competitors in the country. That's why at Lone Star this year they'll have 4 levels of Jack and Jills: Newcomer, Intermediate, Advanced, and All-Star.
