3. December Series Classes with Trevor & Audrey! AND Adam & Pinar!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Take note of the new price scheme outlined below! Series classes remain the same, but drop-in and dance only prices have been raised.
*** LEVEL 1 - LINDY BASICS AND CHARLESTON ***
8:15 - 9:15pm
Come have some fun with Trevor and Audrey as they take you through some moves to get you going to some up tempo music! This class will take a beginner with little to no dance experience and introduce the basics of lindy hop as well as how to integrate some fun and fast footed Charleston steps.
*** LEVEL 2 - DYNAMIC LINDY ***
7:15 - 8:15pm
This series will break down how subtle variations can lead to dynamic interaction on the dance floor. Full of practical techniques, this class will help you build connection and use momentum to effortlessly link and create new moves hopefully ending up with a "48 count move", a roller coaster, that you cannot predict from the beginning where it might end up at the end!
*** LEVEL 3 - BE THE MASTER OF THE 2-WAY STREET ***
7:15 - 8:15pm
Communication is one of the most essential ingredients of a good partner dance. In this class, Adam and Pinar will challenge you with a long list of examples where you have to take both your speaking and listening skills on a fun ride. The class will have you leading and following some of the most tricky moves on the dance floor with finesse, while showing your ways to subtly interject your personal creative ideas within the flow of our dance with your partner. A super inspiring series of classes to end 2010!
*** ALL LEVELS BALBOA ***
8:15 - 9:15pm
Balboa is a subtle and intricate dance that creates an intimate feeling of connection and unspoken communication between you and your partner! Whether you have some experience already with this dance or you are an absolute beginner, you can gain more facility with the basics and learn a few moves to faster and faster music in this series with Adam and Pinar.
