2. November Classes: Balboa with Jeff Kroll & Margot! Idalia & James & Kevin Weng! Brian & Angela!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please note the change in the time slots! Level 3 moved to 7:15pm, while the Elective class (Balboa) moved to 8:15pm. Be sure to come at the right time!
7:15-8:15pm
*** LEVEL 2F: Chewy Charleston Chops w/ Idalia & Kevin Weng ***
Add some pizzaz to your Charleston by kicking and double-kicking our way through "airplane" charleston, Hand-to-Hand moves, Hack-saws and Kick-Throughs. We'll even make the magical mix of Charleston Swing-Outs to really get you flying through those swingin' beats! This is a progressive 4-week class; show up on the first week to get maximum benefit.
#Pre-requisites: Execute a swingout, lindy circle, charleston and 6-count moves and transition between them in open and closed positions. No partner required, just bring your enthusiasm!
*** LEVEL 3: Footwork Variations, Styling, Lines w/ Angela & Brian ***
You've mastered all the moves and you're dancing confidently with all kinds of partners. Now you're considering the bigger picture: layering these complicated variations and styling with a solid partner connection, creating a two-body picture with great quality of movement and intentional aesthetics. This class will explore that heady level where theory meets execution.
#Pre-requisites: At least nine consecutive months of Level 1 and Level 2 including one full year of social dance, or discuss your eligibility with instructors. Under-qualified students will be asked to transfer to Level 2 in order to strengthen their fundamentals. No partner required.
8:15-9:15pm
*** LEVEL 1B: 8-Count Basic Lindy Hop w/ Idalia & James ***
When you really want to dig that swing beat, there's nothing like 8-count lindy hop! We will start with the basics, from zero dance experience on up, and get you swinging around the dance floor in no time! This is a progressive 4-week class; show up on the first week to get maximum benefit.
#Pre-requisites: NONE! No partner required; just bring your enthusiasm!
*** ALL LEVELS BALBOA w / Jeff Kroll & Margot ***
Balboa is subtle and intricate dance that can be an exciting and fantastic little intimate secret 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 some moves to faster and faster music in this series.
This series will start with the balboa basics, and quickly build up your balboa repertoire with paddles, come around, toss out, lollies, cross overs, slides, and show you how to mix them together in fun patterns.
