(We've mainly listed those that have attended all UK camps and others globally ).

GNSH 2008:

Amazing, extremely well organized workshop with high-level-dancers, yet nice and friendly atmosphere. The Norwegians had a great time and we'll definitely be back! 
E.Toftemo, Norway


GNSH was brilliant, all our crowd enjoyed themselves, especially our 'newbies' Jon & Nina who spent the whole weekend with their mouths open.
G&S.Boon, Gloucestershire

I really enjoyed the event and so did my most of my friends/customers, you always make a huge effort and that really shows during the weekend.
C.Arnott, Portsmouth

Keep up the good work. You're running the best organized lindy camp in Europe :) Svenn. K, Norway

Firstly thank you for a great weekend, I really enjoyed it and had such a good time. The atmosphere was so good, still buzzing from it now, don't think I have got back to normality yet. Can't wait for next year!!

The choice of teachers this year was really really good, all of them had so much energy and were really enjoying themselves during classes and social dancing which I think was definitely reflected on to the mood of the guests and whole camp.
P.Miles, Hertfordshire.

Would like to thank you again for my wonderful weekend, and I hope that you have been able to relax a little.  You were both delightful hosts, as always.

Thank you for a fantastic weekend! In terms of organisation, value for money, fun level, atmosphere, food quality, hotel quality, dance classes, teachers, and dance hours, GNSH 2008 was the best event I've ever been to. Many congratulations for your success.

Your hard work shows your genuine love for Lindy, which is truly appreciated by all of us. Many congratulations again and best regards.
M.Ferro

Thanks for a great weekend.  I learned loads and danced loads.  Well done on running such a great event. 
H&B.Birns, Scotland & Australia
                                

We had a fabulous time and we just wanted to say thanks to all the team. We had great fun, the teachers were fab, the food was first class, we met lots of great people and listened to some great music.....
P&M, Essex

We want to pass on our positive views and say how we very much enjoyed the weekend. We have, it goes without saying, signed up for next year.

You both work extremely hard to make GNSH the success that it is. Despite your heavy workload during the event, you always make time to stop and talk and, more importantly, really listen to opinions; not something you get on every dance camp.
N&S.Baines, Sheffield

In general as ever it was a SUPERB weekend, lots of dancing, great classes, great people, great organisation :o) many thanks for your organisation! I.Hill, Bristol

What a great GNSH this year. I had a brilliant time. The band & DJs were excellent. My dancin better than ever.
C.Riddick, Surrey

I really enjoyed the days I managed to get to .. everything was super. The cabaret on the Saturday was an amazing standard. I really liked all lessons but I particularly liked the taster for blues...we seemed to learn so much., Claire Broderick, London

Hi guys, and thanks for a wonderful camp. GNSH is still the best camp I've ever been to, and it was even better this year than it was the last time. The teachers were good, classes were great, social dancing were super and so on, M.W.Ytrehus, Norway

First thanks for an absolutely excellent week-end.  This was my second year there and I thoroughly enjoyed it, it evidently takes heaps of work to put it all together and it is a real treat to be in amongst so many fellow dancers.
D.Richards, London

Like to thank you for the wonderful care you took of Ash and I last month:) It was really nice to go the other side of the world and still feel so welcome. Hopefully we'll be able to come and visit again.
C.Baker, Australia


GNSH 2007:

Just arrived back from Good night sweetheart camp. Joseph and Trisha , you organised again a great event! It was a great opportunity to meet dancers of many different countries like England, France, Norway, Netherlands, Check Republic, Spain, Ireland, … And meeting many old friend - I haven't seen some of them since last Herrang! I love the feeling when you dance with someone you haven't met a year and still find the harmony as if you danced every day!
M.Bendick, Hungary

I would like to thank you for arranging this fantastic camp! It's without doubt the most well- organized camp I've ever been to (and I've visited a few). Very, very professional. I especially enjoy the combination of of high-level classes and friendly atmosphere.

This is also the general view among the Norwegians. We all had a great time and we will be back.
E.Toftemo, Norway

GNSH 2007 was magnificent, We really did enjoy the weekend, Once again the 'Advanced ego' level rocked, Nice people in the class, great teaching. Everyone in the class was a good dancer, and you both deserve a lot of credit for being brave enough to take this step. I heard no complaints about class levels at all.

All 'The Glosters' had a great time and i hope they have let you know. They were all in different levels and no complaints from any of them. You have got it sussed - well done!! The evenings were great  - even the competition was better this year.
G&S Boon, Gloucestershire

Thanks for a really great weekend.
J.Cameron, London

I will have to tell you that this was one of the best dancing experiences of my life. It was so well organised and for once it felt like the organisers listened to what we had to say. Thank you so much guys and I look forward to next year!
H.S, Denmark

I just cannot believe it.... I normally spend between £125 - £150 on dance camps, with 3 - 4 teachers, plus an extra £60 quid to find food. But at GNSH I had soooo many great teachers, cabarets, swing orchestra, lots of FREE food and drinks all weekend, unrivalled venue, top dances all night with dancers from all over the world and it only cost me £129. It's crazy.. GNSH 2008 is already in my diary...
T.D, London

Just want to say thanks very much for GNSH07... Debi & I had a wonderful time.
GNSH is a terrific event with an awesome array of teachers. The Cabarets too were absolutely stunning.
N&D Wale, Nottinghamshire

Dear Joseph and Trisha, we just wanted to thank you for the incredible opportunity you gave us to join you for the GNSH Camp. You've been really special hosts: everything was simply perfect, the organization was the best I saw ever, the band was great, the Djs also, the food was good, you've been extremely nice and kind and the teachers... well... we could not ask more. ..next year we won't miss it ... once again, thank you very very much.
S & B, Italy

Dear Joseph and Tricia .. just want to say Thank You for a fantastic weekend! I enjoyed every minute, so did the rest of the Danish group I was traveling with. xxxxxxx xxxxx Camp could learn from you about organizing a planning a big dance event. I specially enjoyed the friendly dance floor! It was great with the 'mixed' dance between teachers and students, just one song broke up the lines between us. Thank you for a well organized weekend with class and good spirit. I will sure be back next year.
K.B, Denmark

Hello Trisha and Joseph, just want to say thank you for a fabulous GNSH week-end! It was my first and I enjoyed the all 3 days so much, I am still buzzing! It was just amazing! Must really practice now! Most of you dancers made me feel very humble! Congratulations for a great organisation too! Shall wear my signed Tshirt with pride and joy!
F Johnstone, Hampshire

We really enjoyed the weekend - great fun and look forward to next year. Venue, atmosphere and sat dinner excellent. Relaxed weekend and plenty of opportunity to chat and dance. Love the dining hall and great having hot and cold drinks available at all times ... Thanks again for a great weekend and all your hard work and that of your wonderful team who were all very pleasant and helpful.
A&J Leonard, Buckinghamshire

Thanks for a wonderful weekend with inspiring teachers, delicious food, lots of fun dances and good atmosphere in Harry Potterish surroundings.
H.L, Denmark

A quick note to thank you both for putting on a fantastic weekend. The whole event was well worth the wait. Classes were great, teachers were awesome and the cabaret (both nights) was superb. The food was also of high quality and all the people helping you in the background did a great job.
Myself and Jessica really enjoyed ourselves, learnt some new moves, met alot of new people and saw alot of familiar faces from past events. Thank you both again, hope to see you soon.
S&J Dunn, Gloucestershire.

Hope you have had some chance to sleep since GNSH.  We all had a fantastic time.  Even our beginners, who can find these events quite intimidating, had a great time. 
A.Jones, Yorkshire

Trish and Joseph - you are just so wonderfull to be around and carefull as well. How do you manage to get all that energy thru´ a weekender like this ? I am amazed..honestly. .. Every one just simply ENJOYED the lot. SO - THANK YOU.... P.Mogenson, Denmark

Well done with GNSH it was a really good weekend, i have had lots of positive feedback from people in our group that went!
L.Howell, Sussex


Just a note to add the hundreds you have probably already had to say a million thank you's for GNSH this year. It was exceptional. The move to Haileybury was a triumph and I'm so glad you've stuck with it. The camp has gone from strength to strength since Year One and I'm so glad that I've managed to be there at every one. Wouldn't have missed it for the world.
A.Syvret, Gloucestershire


GNSH 2006 :

Thanks for another fantastic experience at GNSH! It was no suprise to me at all that this year's camp was 100x better than last year's. I feel a little bad for my friends back here in the US as all I can say is "You HAVE TO come with me next year! This camp is awesome!" Never have I felt so welcome and so at home as I have with the international community of dancers who go to your camp."- N.Gray, USA

"I want to say THANK YOU for the nice weekend. I have enjoyed it very much. I have learnt a lot in the lessons, have had a lot of fun on the parties and I met very nice people. Your organisation was great. I think, all people enjoyed the GNSH. I would like to take part next year again." - R.K, Germany


"The camp was the most organized, smoothly run event we've ever been to in Europe, as teachers or students and it beats 99% of the camps in the U.S. too. Thanks for making it easy and enjoyable for us." - M.Kempler, USA

"I had a fabulous time - loadsa great people to dance with! and loadsa great music." - A.Fleming, Bucks.

"Crackin' venue, great classes and dances and music, fantastic teachers and cabarets, very good food and value for money.  I support your controlling of levels in the classes as I think it is the only way at such a big event. Overall, great, and looking forward to the next one." - C.Hall, Suffolk

"I just wanted to say thank you again for the great GNSH weekend. It was a big pleasure for me being there, dancing and seeing all this great people and enjoying myself." - M.Stocker, Switzerland

"Just wanted to share with anyone who didn¹t make it to Goodnight Sweetheart last weekend that it was incredible. For me it was the best dance camp I¹ve attended, and I have got so much new stuff to work on .... The quality of dancers there was high ­ plenty of guests from Europe.

The quality of the teaching was superb ­ classes were all just incredible with focus on good technique and cool moves. The food was yum for the Valentine¹s Ball on Sat night everyone looked gorgeous the dances went on way into the night. Watching Francois busting out with Giselle was just wild. Jo and Trish did a fantastic job and I felt real proud of the UK dance scene. After such an intense weekend of such quality I have severe withdrawal symptoms now......! Don¹t miss it next year." - H.Whiteoak - London.

"Thank U for organising the workshop. We enjoyed it very very very much. We had great lessons, good food, very good sleeping places and many more. Thank you thank you thank you. Blesses and kisses from the Dutchies." - A.Holt, Amsterdam.

"Thanks for a fantastic weekend at Goodnight Sweetheart.  The workshops were great, the food amazing, the organisation faultless" - N.P. Gloucestershire.

"What amazing time! What memories!  Cant wait for next year.  I don't know about you guys but it took me three days of solid sleep to recover, thank god I was on holiday all last week."  - J.T, France.

Thank you for a wonderful weekend. I can understand why people rate it in the top 5 in Europe!!! Well done to you both! Fabulous organisation, venue, teachers, cabaret, the lot! - T.Lothingland, Exeter

"Excellent weekend." - E&J, Norway.

"I'm just about recovered from Goodnight Sweetheart, my third dance camp in the space of a month. Held in the idyllic surroundings of Haileybury College in the heart of the Hertfordshire countryside, Joseph & Trisha and all their team really had worked hard to make this one fabulous weekend. We had the best teachers who all taught interesting classes, plus other couples who taught a variety of taster classes.

The college is absolutely spectacular, the dining room amazing and likewise the food both in quantity and quality. The dance spaces were adequate and the main hall where we had the evening dances was just right. Each evening there was an evening dance with DJs, all of whom played good music. Friday night for me was the best night, as it often is, I had sooo many lovely dances that by the end of the evening I was really buzzing. On Saturday the dance was rather too busy, but Sunday, when the numbers were reduced it was good too. I finally arrived home at 3.00 am on Monday morning and was up for work by 8.00 am !!" - J.Cook, London

It was a fantastic weekend, great atmosphere, friendly and the food was fab! You are the best at organising events - B.Fisher, London

Brilliant- well done - great venue, superb facilities- kickin' night, excellent teachers especially that Lindy Hip  Hop couple!  - R.Mckim, Berkshire.

GNSH 2005:

Kevin and I just wanted to say "thanks" again for such a kick-ass weekend! We had so much fun and were really impressed with how smoothly things ran. We felt really well taken care of and that helped to make the weekend low-stress for us! The social dancing during the evenings was so much fun. Carla Heiney, USA

It was like week 4 of Herrang..just amazing! - Jessica

Thank you so much for organising such an excellent workshop... I cannot find my words to thank you. I knew it would be a big event but you gave it a touch of... simplicity and class. Thanks for teaching and taking care of us during this weekend. S, France

Joseph and Trisha, Just wanted to thank you both for all your energy, hard work and laughs. the weekend was a stunning success. the line-up of U.S.A. teacherswas just WOW and their classes were the best i have taken. the whole organisation was superb. Thanks for bringing them over here. you are the best. H Whiteoak, London

Joseph and Trisha, like some of my peers, I was disappointed, not to get into the advance level, as I am always in advance in all other UK camps. However when I saw the standard at GNSH I understood. M.

Thanks for a great weekend!!! You did a great job putting it together. J, Sweden

Hi Trisha...Thanks for a fantastic weekend - I thoroughly enjoyed it and it really could not have been any better - I came from Brighton on my own (as you know I was a bit nervous about it) but am so glad I did because the atmosphere was fantastic, the teachers unbelievable and the cabarets even more so! C, Brighton

Hi Trisha and Joseph, We had a great time at the weekend. It was very well-run and entertaining. Really enjoyed all the classes as well .. See you soon,
A +J Leonard, UK

Joseph & Trisha, just had to say what a fantastic weekend Jessica and myself had. This was our first GNSH we had attended and you can be sure that we will be coming back. Great line-up of teachers and an absolutely brilliant cabaret. once again, thanks for a great weekend. S Dunn.

Thank you, Joseph & Tricia, and all your little cherubs that worked so hard to make GNSH such a great week-end for us all. ... It was my first time there but I never felt lost - you helped from airport to hotel, and I met lots of friendly dancers to travel with to various venues, parties and back to hotel (separate rooms!). All teachers were wonderful and had interesting stuff to show us, with patience... Particular congratulations to that youthful Swedish bunch, from tap and hip-hop classes to fantastic performance! Grands mercis, et a la prochaine fois! F&D, Edinburgh

Hi Joseph and Trisha, again a very well organised weekend, shame I couldn't participate more fully. Music - fantastic, loads of up tempo stuff, great. Shame I couldn't dance to it! Teachers - Superb, I learnt so much just by watching! Cabarets - excellent. I wish I was seventeen again! Looking forward to the next one. GT, Portsmouth

"This last weekend we didn't have to go very far to enjoy a really first class dance camp…just up the A1M to Hatfield in fact. Goodnight Sweetheart turned out to be the best ever – everything was just first class. I just so loved the classes, which were given by some of my favourite instructors. ! A great weekend Joseph & Trisha ; thank you so much for your hard work ! "J Cook, London

Joseph and Trish.. First, may I congratulate you on the fabulous organisation and social side to GNSH this year.. I must admit I don't usualy go for local teachers when there is such internation ‘intrigue' but yours was one of my favourite class/routines.. And I am glad I attended your class... Both evenings cabarets were fantastic.. The awesome abilities on show, gave me much needed inspiration and motivation to improve. DM, Berks

Thanks for a fantastic weekend, we had a ball.Hope to see you soon. Take care and don`t work too hard. D& B, Glasgow

Thanks again for yet another great weekend - it really is worth all your time and effort! J, Portsmouth

Trisha and Joseph.. Thank you for all your hard work organising a great line up of teachers for the GNSH weekend. We had a fantastic time and learnt some new tricks and ideas to add to our dancing. Fantastic dances Friday and Sunday, lovely meal ... I think you are fabulous dancers and really enjoy watching you jam on the dance floor, thanks again for organising a great weekend. P& B, UK
