1. THIS WEEK: May Series Begin! The Hot Baked Goods! DJ Naomi!
We're super excited for our May classes! Jean and Bromley are award-winning swing dance instructors that have been teaching both locally and internationally, and we love it when they free up their busy schedule a bit and come to teach at WNH. They're impressive aerialists, so make sure you find a partner and sign up for their Basic Aerials Elective class (yes, PARTNER REQUIRED). They will also challenge the Level 3 class with Musicality and Rhythm topics. Level 2, prepare to dive into some Charleston variations with Lori and Paul, and Level 1 gets to learn the 8-count Lindy with Lori & Gilles! http://wednesdaynighthop.com/register/The Hot Baked Goods are here to play for our dance party! You danced with them, you took classes from them, you heard them DJing -- now it's time to dance to them! The Hot Baked Goods is a young San Francisco jazz band, and many of its members are SF Bay Area dancers. Mentored by Clint Baker himself they're on the roll to bring out the best lindy hop music to our dance floors! http://wednesdaynighthop.com/event/20140507/Please welcome DJ Naomi to spin the band breaks!

2. May Series: Jean & Bromley! Gilles, Lori, Paul!
7:15-8:15pm
*** LEVEL 2: Chewy Charleston Chops w/ Lori & Paul ***
Add some pizzazz 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 and comfortable clothes!
*** LEVEL 3: Stylish Lindy w/ Jean & Bromley ****
While the song goes, "It taint what you do but how you do it", we believe it's actually a little of both. In this class we will be working on some fun moves and rhythms that will add contrast and musicality to your dancing (what you do) while also working on lines and dancing with your whole body (how you do it).
# 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.
8:15-9:15pm
*** LEVEL 1: 8-Count w/ Lori & Gilles ***
Hop on the fast track to amazing swingouts! Journey through the 8-count world with Gilles and Lori, developing your swingout and jazz skills on the road to Lindy Hop. You'll learn some cool ways to move your feet to the rhythm, as well as some some flashy figures. But best of all, you'll gain more confidence with a widening swing repertoire, paving the way to even more fun with your partner!
# PRE-REQUISITES: None. No partner required; just bring your enthusiasm and comfortable clothes!
*** ELECTIVE: Basic Aerials w/ Jean & Bromley ***
Come learn the foundational elements that will take you or your partner up, up and away. Besides a fun aerial for jam circles or competitions expect to learn the tricks of the trade for approaching aerials down the road. In this series we will be working on aerials from Tandem Charleston.
# PRE-REQUISITES: There will be no rotation, you MUST BRING A PARTNER. Knowledge of Tandem Charleston -- entering into it, staying in it, and exiting -- is highly recommended.
