Classes with Kevin & Jo have been so fun these past few weeks! We would love it if more followers would come take the Level 2 & Higher Dips and Tricks class that starts at 7:15. We will only take couples and drop-in followers until it's balanced and then anything goes!
Some of the staff filled in as followers in this class last week and had a ball with it. It doesn't matter what level you are; come learn some fun new tricks this month with Kevin & Jo!
See you on the floor!

*** 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.

8:15 - 9:15pm

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.
