The Steppers Beat News and Opinion

Contest Itch

With the omni-present contest upon us all over the country in the next few months, it's a great time to try out one of SteppersUSA's latest features to use, I'm talking about the Dance Partner Search. I've run into several people who say they would dance in one or more contest's but they need a partner. That right partner might just be out there. There won't be any "junk Ad's" because they are checked before they can be seen in the Dance Partner Search. It's Free like most services on SteppersUSA. You can even upload your photo there!
Instructors Search
You may be looking for an instructor to help smooth out those "rough edges" before the big contest. Although most instructors do private lessons, you may be looking for that something special which you may not see in the instructor list's in our national listings. Our Instructor Search is the perfect place to tell the instructors what you are looking for. There is an instructor out there for what you need. You just have to ask and Our Instructor Search is the place to ask.
I Would Like to See This...
There are almost as many ideas for the growth of Chicago Style stepping as there are people stepping. Do you have a great idea? Our Steppers Classifieds has an area for you to post your ideas and just about anything else you can think of.
With all of these features, you have nothing to loose (except perhaps that dance partner, or session with an instructor or maybe even a contest if you don't try them), they don't cost a thing... Give them a try!

For those of you who promote and submit events to SteppersUSA you may have noticed we've added some new features. Some are for security purposes like the captcha coding. Other changes are to make the Events Submission Form a bit more uniform and hopefully a bit easier to use. An important addition is a three choice question where you choose... If you sell advance tickets, can they be ordered on line? The choices are a simple yes, no or Contact me about customers ordering tickets directly from SteppersUSA. This FREE service by SteppersUSA can help you increase your advance ticket sales all from one place. Think about it. Thousands come to this site every day looking at events and making plans. It's convenient for the customer and you make money! Don't have a FREE Pay Pal business account? Not a problem! Just click Here!

Customers can use any credit card including Visa, Master Card, Discover, American Express, or their Pay Pal account or directly debit their bank account. It's safe, secure, and easy. SteppersUSA will not ask for any personal or financial information or access to your Pay Pal account. We will only ask for information related to your button. As I said before SteppersUSA will not charge for this convenient service. Both you and your customers have everything to gain! Do you have suggestions to make SteppersUSA even better?  Please Send us an email.




 

Support the History of Stepping Project

Please copy the message below and send it on to as many steppers as you can please!

This is an open message to ALL steppers. Please share it with as many people as possible.

 As many of you may already know I started a new web site for the benefit of the greater steppers community. It's called The History of Stepping Project. I wish to encourage you to add your knowledge to the timeline. If you know anything about stepping, please share this with the public on this site. We are looking for all information related to stepping from it's beginnings to the present. The information literally includes everything from clubs and bars which held steppers sets and parties to contests and the participants and results, to when different steppers organizations and classes started, who the instructors were and are; Musical bands, and artists, DJ's, radio and television personalities, Movies, videos, and photos… literally everything stepping.
Creating an accurate historic timeline will go a long way toward helping the community take the next step in its logical progression as it continues to grow nationwide and will become a valuable resource for all in the future.
Your input, your knowledge and your effort have made the dance what it is today. Don't you feel your place (and your organization's) in the timeline is well deserved? I do!
Please send an email to your members or readers inviting them to participate. Place a link on your web site also please. All support is appreciated!

The effort requires more than just posting the information. The need for fact checkers, people willing to do some research exists in this important ongoing project. Just a few minutes a week can make a difference.

Thank You for your time!
