2. October Series Classes Continue with Adam & Pinar!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the last week you can catch Pinar and Adam during this series!

*** LEVEL 1 - FUNDAMENTALS OF LINDY HOP ***
8:15 - 9:15pm
Kicking off a new class series in October, Adam and Pinar will start teaching you strong fundamentals upon which you can build a long and healthy passion for lindy hop. Start swingin' out in style to the extraordinary music that is America's greatest heritage. Warning: Lindy hop can lead to copious amounts of fun and excitement.

*** LEVEL 2 - FREE YOUR DANCE ***
7:15 - 8:15pm
We always try to push the limits of the box that contain us. We like to remove the mental and physical blocks that inhibit our full expression as dancers and artists. In this class Adam and Pinar will explore ways of achieving these goals. They will help you remove the unnecessary constraints that limit the freedom in your dance and open up a space where you can pronounce your artistry with intention. A rare class sure to be beneficial to dancers of all levels.

*** PRICING & SCHEDULE ***
7:15pm - Level 2 Int Lindy Hop ($14 drop-in, dance included)
8:15pm - Level 1 Beg Lindy Hop ($14 drop-in, dance included)

3. Upcoming Event: Nov 3rd - Live Music - The Solomon Douglas Swingtet!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Solomon Douglas is back but this time he is bringing the whole Swingtet! Ten of the best guys Solomon can gather from all over the country will be coming to swing us out on November 3rd. It is so hard to find a big band sound these days; all the stars have to align just so.

Because of your continued regular support of Wednesday Night Hop, we are able to bring the grand BIG BAND sound of the Solomon Douglas Swingtet at the same price as a regular band night!

Thank you!
