punched the air when the boy described the electric and magical

<div>There's an exciting program on offer at the next Stamping Ground
DanceFest.&nbsp; It's held annually in the village of Bellingen on the
mid-north coast of NSW, Australia and offers an outstanding tuition
program of 30+ different workshops &amp; short courses, forums,
performances and revelry.&nbsp; This year the event has taken a record
number of enquiries from dancemen &amp; women and new enthusiasts from
places far and wide, including Iceland, Canada, US of A, Japan,
Singapore and 18 men &amp; youths from New Zealand.&nbsp; It's
expected the attendance of 306 dance enthusiasts at the last event
will be exceeded at Stamping 2001.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>One of the many performance highlights will be a structured
improvisation on Jan 12th. with 70+ dancemen and boys, an aerial team,
a grand piano and the celebrated David Helfgott of the movie
'Shine&quot;.&nbsp; David is a Bellingen resident and has shifted his
busy recital program so's to be involved with what is now regarded as
the hottest dance event on the national calendar.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Another exciting aspect to the next event has been the interest
of mainstream Australian media. At the next stamp both ABC TV and SBS
(Global Village) are filming a documentary and special report.</div>
