The first part of the lessons of Ms. Berenhoney consisted of learning 200 Separate dance moves which took nearly five hours of almost her constantly demonstrating moves. Willy Wonka sat on the sidelines clearly trying and failing not to laugh at the technique demonstrating. Every time he did it however, Ms. Berenhoney took a conductors baton and whacked him on the head with it. This happened nearly twenty times until he left telling Charlie and Violet to be at home.
The first part consisted of basic moves as expected. They consisted of Twist, Dip, Twirl, and Spin. But then she moved into words all other parties silently agreed had no business being used to call dance moves. Marmelade, Cheese, Fish, Accountant. The second part of the lesson consisted of Ms. Berenhoney calling out the moves, and Charlie and Violet trying to keep up with her.
Charlie Whispered while trying a particularly difficult move called the Icecreamscoop, "This is the best dance teacher on the island?"
Violet replied, "I never choose an instrutor of anything without researching first. I've asked some talent agents and dancing judges about her history. Some people say she's gone senile, other people when I talk about her senility, claim she's allways been that way."
Ms. Berenhoney clapped and said "WONDERFUL! You're clearly learning! And no wonder we've been here nearly seven hours. I knew you were naturals at this. Especially you, Miss Beauregarde. Your gaurdian said you were a martial artist. Well dancing is a lot like fighting. Both require very precise movement, and when you do it alongside a partner, it is most effective when you work in sync with your partner. Allright, class dismissed!"
As Charlie and Violet left Ms. Berenhoney's studio, they were suddenly surrounded by several large kids. The leader said, "Allow me to introduce myself, I am Solomon Bloom, and I'm the top dancer at Blackhill School of dance." Charlie noticed that look of machisma that usually came with bullies. "You losers better not think you stand a chance against us in the dance competition."
As much as Charlie wanted to put up a retort, he was inturrupted by a growling coming from next to us. He turned to see Violet's face glaze over in pure anger. She said Angrily, "No.. one.. calls.. me.. a LOSER! You want to see what youre up against? Let us show you how we can dance."
Charlie grabbed her and whispered, "Uh, Violet? I don't think these guys care how we can dance. I think they are here to.."
Violet stopped him with, "Charlie, remember the last thing Ms. Berenhoney told us? What dancing was like. Just follow my instuctions. We start with Plasticbag, then Atomic Bomb."
Charlie did what was told, and promptly grabbed Violet and swung her around quickly, but instead of Violet landing as she should, she flew over, and kicked Solomon in the face. And thus was the opening moves of the combination dance and fight, with Violet calling out "Swordfish, Tape, EMERALD!" and Charlie helping executing the moves with the amazing precision he learned from Ms. Berenhoney.
It was soon clear that the bullies did not stand up to Charlie and Violet. They quickly ran back to the Blackhill school of dance, and ran up to Headmaster James Blackhill, who immediatly asked, "Did you persuade them?"
"No sir, they were able to turn their dancing skill into fighting skill, and kicked our butts."
Blackhill said angrilly, "BLAST! We might lose the competion."
Lord Darnital from a chair nearby said, "I will not let a bunch of kids ruin my plan. If you lose the competition, you can't go to the island cheif's congratulatory dinner, and therefore you can't take him hostage as my troops invade the Isle of Music. Who are these students?"
