Holy Cow! Last week was off the hook! It was the perfect storm of stimulating instruction from Kevin & Jo, inspiring music from the California Honeydrops and tantalizing eye candy with so many gals spontaneously doning their Little Black Dresses!
The guys are starting to get the message to step up the wardrobe too!
Speaking of fancy dressed ladies and gentlemen, check out our next dress up theme night "Swing Fashion Through The Ages!" held on Feb. 15th! Check out the event page! It's got a TON of awesome information about how to dress for both the ladies and the men!

*** LEVEL 1 - BLENDING RHYTHMS ***
8:15 - 9:15pm
It's time to swing! One of the most fun parts of swing dancing is blending 8-count footwork, 6-count footwork and other interesting rhythms. It's never boring to say the least! In this beginner level 4-week series class, Cheryl & Gilles will teach you some basic 6 and 8-count moves and explore the art of transitioning between these rhythms. Through it all we'll get you swingin' with style! Absolute beginners welcome and no partner is required.
*** LEVEL 3 - KEVIN & JO PERFORMANCE ROUTINE! ***
8:15 - 9:15pm
Yes, you should take this class - it will be fun and the experience will make you a better dancer! Commit for the whole 9-weeks to learn the entire routine (and get the 5th week class for free). Sign up for Feb and March separately and pay the full price including the 5th week drop-in class upfront this month. You must sign up with a partner to assure balance in class. We will monitor this as best we can even with drop-ins for the first two weeks of the month only. Arrive early for a better registration experience.
