The team will perform a Cuban Salsa dance routine for the first time in costume, on Friday, September 28 from 7:00-7:30 p.m. in Eykamp Hall in UE’s Ridgway University Center, as part of the University’s Family Weekend.  The group will also perform a waltz, the tango and the cha-cha.

UE Ballroom Dance Club Partners with Glenwood Leadership Academy for Mad Hot Ballroom Program

The UE Ballroom Dance Club has partnered with Glenwood Leadership Academy in its pilot Mad Hot Ballroom program, based on the 2005 award-winning documentary, with curriculum developed by champion instructor Pierre Dulaine.

In this program, UE students and staff teach Latin dance and music in elementary and middle schools. This year’s pilot program was a partnership between Erin Lewis, associate director of UE’s Center for Innovation & Change and owner and operator of Evansville Dancesport Academy, and Angela Paul, Glenwood Leadership Academy’s dance instructor.

The Mad Hot Ballroom program is the result of a Global Scholar partnership between Erin Lewis and UE assistant professor of music Shawn Teichmer. Shawn and Erin studied the music and dance of Cuba, then contracted with world champion choreographers from the UK, Fred Astaire Dance Studio in Carmel, Indiana, and Cuba to develop a routine for the students.

UE staff and ballroom club leadership then taught the Cuban Salsa dance routine, as well as the cultural history of Cuban dance, at Glenwood twice a week for about ten weeks.

The team will now perform the routine for the first time in costume, on Friday, September 28 from 7:00-7:30 p.m. in Eykamp Hall in UE’s Ridgway University Center, as part of Family Weekend.

UE Ballroom Club students and staff will also perform a Waltz, Tango and Cha Cha.

The students’ costumes and coaching were made possible by a generous donation from Judith Ann Griffin, who believes in the power of dance to heal and inspire.

UE’s Mad Hot Ballroom program will eventually host an annual dance gala and city-wide competition for children in our community.

Hazelton Man Arrested for Allegedly Killing Two Dogs

0

At approximately 12:25 this afternoon, Indiana State Police arrested Jordan Hunt, 27, of Hazelton, after an on scene investigation revealed he allegedly killed two female dogs at a rural location in Pike County near Hazelton.

Sometime Tuesday evening, September 25, the owner of the dogs, Chelsie Koutz, contacted Evansville Police Department to report that someone had entered her Evansville residence and took both of her dogs. One dog was a Pitbull Lab mix and the other dog was a Golden Doodle.  Koutz posted information on Facebook and was offering a reward for the return of her pets. Hunt is a former  boyfriend of Koutz.

Shortly after noon today, a person who saw Koutz’s post on Facebook contacted her about the location of her pets. Officers responded to a rural area on C.R. 200 North near Hazelton and discovered both dogs had been burned and were deceased. Investigating officers believe both dogs were shot prior to being set on fire. Hunt fled the area in his vehicle, but was apprehended at his residence located at 3928 East SR 56, Hazelton. He was taken to the Pike County Jail where he is currently being held on a $350,000 bond.

 Arrested and Charges:

  • Jordan M. Hunt, 28, Hazelton, IN
  1. Intimidation, Level 5 Felony
  2. Domestic Violence-Animal Cruelty, Level 6 Felony
  3. Killing a Domestic Animal, Level 6 Felony
