Geno's Quick Schedule

  Ceezees.com is dedicated to bring attention to, and assist in the Preservation of, the Cajun, Zydeco and Creole Heritage and their culture that has survived over the past quarter-millennium in South Louisiana. As members of the Cajun French Music Association, my wife Liz, and I are actively involved in bringing attention to the culture of the Cajun & Creole settlers, their descendants, and their Heritage that is based on strong family values.  A traditional Cajun Fais do-do in Louisiana can still have in attendance the entire family just as it has for over two centuries.  We continue to see an increase in the numbers of new Zydeco & Cajun Dancers on the 'floors' of Louisiana by providing Cajun, Creole, & Zydeco dance lessons periodically throughout the year.  We also attend and promote festivals, and fund-raising events that feature Louisiana cultural bands, specifically Cajun, Creole, & Zydeco bands!  We are constantly on the lookout for and up & coming bands and encourage venues to provide opportunities for new talent, especially at the larger festivals, and in the Baton Rouge area!

This site is owned and maintained by Mike Humphries, an avid Cajun and Zydeco dancer, who along with his wife are enjoying the God given gift of unrestricted Joy (la joie de vie).  We actively seek out of the way Cajun, Creole, and Zydeco Festivals to attend and dance with like minded individuals from across the nation.  Check back with us often to see where we've been and what we thought about the festivals we attend. We are available to teach at festivals in or out of the United States.  We are delighted to have been invited back to teach Cajun & Zydeco dance lessons at "Cajun Fest- Taste Louisiana Cajun & Zydeco Music Festival in Amana, Iowa on Memorial Day weekend. Also check Cajun and Zydeco dance schedules for events happening in and around South Louisiana which will be listed below and in Current Events.  If you're interested in acquiring vintage and other dancing, walking, riding, cowboy, or fashion boots or shoes, check out the links below to our vintage clothing, boots, belts, shoes & handbags.  Other interesting items may occasionally be listed under Other Items for sale.

Merci, et mais Bon Dieu vous benit!

Our Goal - is to provide Cajun and Zydeco dance schedule information for the S. LA. area and provide dance instruction for those who want to learn how to Dance to Cajun and Zydeco music.  Eventually, we would hope to provide a dance venue that has the dancer's interest at heart.  Being dancers ourselves, we have a keen understanding of what is important to the dancing public;  smooth, shock absorbent wooden floors, cool breezes, cold refreshment, and of course- Excellent Live Louisiana Entertainment!!

Webmaster's note: This is located on Hwy 71 15.5 miles NW of Hwy 190. Hwy 71 branches off Hwy 190 1~1.5 miles WEST of Krotz Springs or about 7~9 Miles EAST of Port Barre and is the straightest road I've ever seen for 15.7 miles; and it has been overlaid with in the past couple of years and is probably the smoothest long stretch of straight road in the state! So it's easy to not notice your speed!  Please observe traffic laws along this stretch as it well patrolled by St. Landry Parish Deputies & LA State Police.

US Armed Forces Veterans;

our protectors who served for us in times of war & peace.

Note: Anytime you get an opportunity to greet a Veteran, please do so with your heartfelt thanks.  If it weren't for these guys our freedom would be in question!  Our language, our heritage, - what else could have changed.   

We, Les Danseurs de la Capitale de Baton Rouge, had the privilege of providing the entertainment at a reunion of the Battle of the Bulge veterans at the Sheraton in the summer of 2006. What an event to be in the presence of these guys who survived one of the worst theaters of engagement of all time, so ill-equipped for the harsh winter that they found themselves surrounded by, yet they hung in there while still fighting the enemy.

Welcome to Baton Rouge Veterans! A reunion of World War II Veterans was held August '06, at based at the downtown Sheraton.  These brave men all served and fought in the Battle of the Bulge and are all in their late 70s on up.  I talked with one gentleman in particular that owned up to having fought in 3 wars in his lifetime, World War II, the Korean War (conflict) and in Vietnam!  He was so proud to be able to claim such a statement. What's really amazing is that he lived through three wars. Another humble and sincere man replied with "You know something, that's only the third time in my life that someone said that to me," after I thanked him personally for serving our country so bravely.  Two other gentlemen informed me that I was the first to thank them for their service. I was shocked. These guys served in a devastating war and against tremendous odds, and the horrific elements with very little provisions in the bitter cold to not hear a sincere thanks from every American they ever come into contact with is beyond my comprehension! So I want to encourage the three or four people that will read this to reach out and seek out a veteran and thank them for their service to their and our country.  Please.

We all want to say THANK YOU for your service to our country and especially for your protection of the freedoms we often may take for granted. A very simple THANKS and a firm handshake can mean the world to some of these guys. So let me repeat myself in encouraging anyone who has the opportunity to cross paths with a WWII vet, to give them a good ole Southern thanks!!!

Support our Troops! wherever they are!

The Gulf Coast Zydeco Music & Crawfish Festival

May 16~18, 2008

We had a blast at this Festival!!!

As did several hundred other dancers from across the US!

Check photos on the website

Daphne, Alabama-�(just across the bay from Mobile)

Daphne Civic Center Complex

Make your plans now to attend, and book your rooms early! Dancers from all over the US attend this festival and rooms go fast!

Nice People, a Fantastic Band Line-up, a wonderful Tent Covered outer dance area with wooden floor outside, and a huge hardwood floor inside an air-conditioned hall, make this one of the best festivals in the country!  Dancers are treated right! I highly recommend this one!

Gulf Coast Zydeco Music and Crawfish Festival 2008

It's All About the Dance (a note from the Director:)

AYEEE ! Zydeco Dance is on the move as new ones are introduced to this high energy dance. I am sure that the first dancers of Zydeco would be amazed at how their same 4 count two-step has advanced. I recently went to a trail ride dance in Lawtell , La. in the heart of Zydeco land. I was amazed at the Zydeco style of the twenty something age group down there. I could clearly see that there is no one way to Zydeco. The count is the same but flair and personal style (as with most dances) makes this dance in my humble opinion one of the best dances around. It has been said that when you dance Zydeco all problems go away. Some learn Zydeco by the rhythm and some learn by the count. It really doesn't matter how you learn it. It only matters that your do! By popular demand the Gulf Coast Zydeco Music and Crawfish Festival will present an array of dance instructors at out festivals for your learning experience and enjoyment. As we say �It's All about the Dance� and it's all about fun!

I'll see you on the dance floor!

Cajun Dance Instruction Presented by Mike and Liz Humphries

Mike and Liz Humphries live near Lafayette, Louisiana . After meeting at a CFMA sponsored Cajun dance, they "jumped the broom" in the presence of a few hundred dear friends at a Cajun fais do-do (pronounced fay-doe-doe) and began their life together sharing their common love of Cajun and Zydeco dance and �le joie de vie� (the joy of life) it brings. Their energetic and animated dance style has earned them recognition in several Cajun and Zydeco venues throughout Louisiana , as well as other areas of the country. Both having educational backgrounds, these two bring their instructional expertise to the dance floor when presenting the basics in Cajun or Zydeco. Teaching by the motto �if you can walk, you can waltz� this dynamic couple will have you up dancing before you know it!

North Baton Rouge Neighborhoods Reunion

Thursday July 5th 6pm $free

If you were raised in North Baton Rouge, & attended Istrouma, Glen Oaks, or Redemptorist in the 40s, 50s, or 60s, or knew someone that did, then you are invited!

Taken from a recent Smile Anders column:  Eleven years ago Jim Carruth, who grew up in north Baton Rouge and is now in Abbeville, thought it might be fun to have a �North Baton Rouge Neighborhoods Reunion� for folks who lived there in the �30s, �40s, �50s and �60s.

He got out the word, found a hall � and several hundred people showed up.  It�s been growing ever since, maybe because there�s no charge and no program � you just hang out with folks you knew from the past.

This year the event is at 6 pm July 5 at the Sheraton Atrium downtown.

Haskell Douglas, one of the organizers, says you�re asked to bring one or two non-perishable items for the Food Bank.

Call Jim at (337) 893-0810, Wayne Price at (225) 317-4561 or Haskell at (225) 627-6988.

NEXT YEAR: JULY 10, 2008 � Same bat Place, Same bat Time

Welcome to all members of the CFMA from other chapters that drive over to offer their support of our chapter's dance.

LSU Students, Stripes participants - welcome!  Come early and bring a friend!

 Thanks to all who come out to support these fantastic bands!
