Taking lessons were Mr. John Adams and wife Donna; Ms. Becky Moore and partner Mike Ducy; Mr. Doug Osborn and partner Terri Robbins; Mr. Chris Coy and wife Tiann, and Mr. Rick Teats and wife Susie. When you go to discotheques, you have to relate to the dancing, commented Mr. Ad- ams. Dancing is back to partner dancing, and our wedding reception was disco. Danc- ing should be fun, and it ' s kind of got to be work. Mr. Osborn enjoyed the lessons and he en- joyed learning dances like The Swing, We put the lessons into use whenever we can, he commented. Some of the favorite dances were The Swing ; King Tut ' s Strut ; and the Fort Lauderdale Hustle. Discotheques on the top list were King ' s Corner, Lucifer ' s, and the Mariott. After-the-ball game dance crowds were of- ten treated to Disco — Teacher Style , When these five teachers and partners boo- gied to the beat of the band, they taught the student body something besides reading, writing, and arithmetic. 60 Facu iy
