the wonderful beautiful and bestest Ceroc Teacher of them all

KellyHudson

Totally agree

[Andy McGregor]

Christine Keeble? Nicky Haslam? Cynthia (Norwich)? Unfortunately all those to whom we all owe so much were too busy doing it to record it.

& Nina and Lily

& Nina and Lily

It was Nigel & Nina that really inspired me and persuaded me that MJ really could be an art form. Lily and David amazed me.

[Minnie M]

& Nina and Lily

Oh............ my.............. goodness ............... how did we leave off the first ladies of modern jive

(I think David & Lily do have a thread of their own - they most certainly should - we owe soooooo much to them)

Go on then, start a thread. It's really easy, anybody can do it.

Speaking of ladies - I think ALINA deserves to be added to the list

Have you been dancing long ?

Alina is a nice dancer, not sure if she warrents the Hall of Fame though ! Come to Funky Lush on Sunday or Slinky's the following Saturday and you will see what I mean

Do you mean there are dozens of fabulous ladies there? If so I'm looking forward to dancing with them, tell me where these venues are!
But I still think Alina is one of the best dancers around, and a brilliant teacher, and a lovely person.

Gotta be Emma Pettitt for me and quite a few peeps in the Central Area, such an inspiration and a pleasure to work and dance with.

[Cornish Pixie]

[Minnie M]

Gotta be VICTORIA ROSEN...........

never heard of her (sorry)

Emma great dancer and teacher

It must be difficult to separate great teachers/dancers and those who have actually influenced the UK dancing world to those who are your personal favourites

[alex]

victoria rosen = keith & victoria

[Minnie M]

victoria rosen = keith & victoria

Sorry non the wiser - does she teach ?

[alex]

Keith & Janey Davis now these two definitely derserve an entry - they have done loads and loads to promote MJ in the UK and together with Tony & Angelina have worked so hard and invested so much to produce our very special Blackpool Competitions

[Dreadful Scathe]

This thread seems to have descended into a personal favourites thread - I wouldnt have thought you could get in the "hall of fame" unless the vast majority of the dancing world has heard of you - unless its based on statistics like "won 3 major competitions in a row" or something. "A teacher from down south" label does not make you a Hall of Fame contender

[bigdjiver]

Belonging in the "Hall of fame" and being famous are not the same thing. Who invented the first wheel?
I believe the "Hall of fame" is for those that have made the biggest changes for the better. I can be for a moments inspiration, or for a lifetime of successful endeavour.

[straycat]

Who invented the first wheel?

I think you'll find that was Chuck Norris.
