Students attend St. Patrick’s Day Ball

Each spring, DanceCincinnati, Cincinnati’s professional dance organization, holds it’s annual ball. This year it was held on St. Patrick’s Day evening and was therefore themed as such.
Several dance students of Dr. Christon Hurst, adjunct professor of music, attended the ball. They were privy to the grand ballroom of Music Hall where they danced to a variety of music styles provided
by D.J. Terry Cavanaugh.
Those dancing were provided with the style of music that was about to be played so they were able to prepare for those specific dance moves.
Some of the dances included Waltz, Foxtrot, Swing, Bolero, Rumba and many others.
There was a dance demonstration
that was provided by both professional and amateur dancers from the Cincinnati area. These dancers were Gene Brockert, Jill Bradford and Bonita Brockert.
Bradford was the first president of DanceCincinnati while Bonita, Gene’s husband, is a professional dancer and her husband’s coach.
