Thousands of people
across the country are discovering the joy of dressing up
Victorian-style and dancing the steps of generations past. Many of
them are experiencing this for the first time with Sharon and Mike
Guli, of River Crossing Inc. Sharon brings to each ballroom a
pleasant and lively mix of both the old and the new --
historically-correct vintage pieces, simplified versions that are
easier for modern, untrained folks, and a few contemporary
selections that maintain the flavor and feel of Victorian times.
During breaks in the music, she shares entertaining information on
the history of the dances and the etiquette of this bygone era.
While preserving this piece of
our American past, Sharon keeps things relaxed with light banter, an
eagerness to encourage the novice, and a clear, easy way of
explaining the steps so all can understand and participate. As
she leads from the stage, Mike moves among the dancers in his role
of Floor Manager, helping folks get situated into the proper
formations, finding partners for single ladies, and educating people
on how to tell their right hand from their left. Sharon is skilled
at teaching people of all ages and abilities, and the growing demand
for her unique talents as a dance instructor have taken them to
events across the United States and Europe.
Sharon is a delightful,
entertaining instructor. Not only is she very skilled and
knowledgeable, it is also obvious that she is eager to make sure that everyone enjoys
themselves.”
