Membership in Emerald City K-9 Freestyle Dancers
Membership in Emerald City K-9 Freestyle Dancers is the
beginning of a whole new and exciting chapter in your life.
We are a local club in the western Washington area and
endeavor to promote the exciting sport of Canine Musical Freestyle by doing
demonstrations for sporting events such as dog walks, dog shows, charity events
promoting dogs, nursing homes and retirement homes.
Our members come from many backgrounds such as teachers,
doctors, veterinarians, secretaries, store clerks, housewives, flight
attendants, dog groomers, nurses and anyone who loves spending quality time
with their furry friend in a creative way such as dance.
Many of our members belong to more than one organization
such as WCFO and Paws 2 Dance. You do not have to join one of those
organizations to be a member of our Club. Quite a few of our members are
not interested in competing and prefer to just train and socialize with the
other members, which we encourage. Not
everyone has the time to devote to the practice required for competition and
some prefer to just do their dancing in the privacy of their own homes or for
their friends.
Our Club has been putting on competitions for Paws 2
Dance for 10 years and for WCFO 6 years. We also hold meetings when
necessary, parties when we can fit them in and a lot of computer visits since
we are all so far spread, in Canada, Eastern and Western Washington and Oregon.
We try to put on at least one workshop a year and have
one coming up on November 5th and 6th with the multi-talented
Julie Flanery.
