Okay, I don’t mean the confusion between right and left feet :-), or even the confusion between a grapevine and a weave.

A problem we all run into is sorting out the names of the dances from the names of the many pieces of music that each dance can be done with.  I’ll admit I’m not too good at this.  I typically think of the name of the song I normally use as being the same as the name of the dance.  Not so.

In selecting video links, the problem gets even more confusing.  Many of the best views of the steps use different music than we use at the Mall Walk.  Sometimes I don’t even know what music is being used on the video.  Yet, I’m using song names for my video tags — the songs we typically use at the mall, not the songs on the videos, and also not the names of the dances.

Yikes.  Bear with me.  Video tags read: name of mall walk music (not video music) followed by name of dance from step sheet (if I have that).

Hope this helps.

Video links (to the right) are intended to assist Mall Walkers who are just getting started and want to review routines that various groups practice regularly.

These links may not exactly match what Mall Walk Group Leaders are teaching, and are intended only as backup for the detailed instruction you will get from those Group Leaders.

Please let me know if you find these links useful, and/or what particular routines you would like to see a link to.

Welcome to the Stockton Mall Walk blog.

Stockton’s Weberstown Mall hosts the Weberstown Walkers, providing a wonderful opportunity for folks to gather for a stroll or a power-walk 7 days a week before the stores open.

As guests of the Mall, all participants are asked to follow the Mall’s general rules of conduct and to take responsibility for their own safety.  PLEASE SIGN A RELEASE and emergency contact when you join the Weberstown Walkers.  Forms are available from Coordinator Kristen.  You’ll find Kristen near Dillard’s every Monday, Wednesday & Friday from 8:00 to 9:30 am.

The Stockton Mall Walk also offers a variety of group activities including aerobics, line dance, and tai chi.  All groups are free and open.  Volunteer leaders set their own programs.  All Walkers are invited to try any activity that appeals, get involved or just watch.

Please check this blog for Mall Walk news, special activity announcements, schedule changes, and supporting materials for group programs when those are available.

Stop and see me at the mall.
