I am forwarding an email I received in response to the version of *REDNEX STOMP* that I sent out. Last evening I took a copy of the original steps to the Wednesday nite class that my wife and I attend. The instructor told us the name of the person who introduced the Dance to the Ventura, California area. We re-taught the dance adding the missing steps and gave all the class members the responsibility to spread the word in this part of the country. This fits together with the email that you sent to the IDEAS group. Keep on kickin' L:-D Phil Rockwell prockwell@facso.navfac.navy.mil 158 Vela Court Santa Paula, CA 93060 - - -----message ends @ this line all else added after launch--- Original text: (61 lines follow) >From "Eileen R. Haxton" , on 10/7/95 12:42 AM: Hi Phil, We are also doing the Rednex Stomp here and realy like it. It was choreographed by Christopher Kumre & Knox Rhine. One of our local teachers attended a workshop in Ca. that was given by Knox Rhine, and she brought it back to this area. He has also published it in his book. However, this dance is different then the one you sent, yet very simular.
