2. October Classes: BALBOA! Carla & Gilles! Margot & Richard! Lori & Eliott!

7:15-8:15pm
*** LEVEL 2: 6- & 8-count Remixed w/ Lori & Eliott! ***
When the worlds of 8- and 6-count swing collide, amazing dancing results! Join us in learning some of the classic and awesome 6/8 count moves you see on the dance floor. You might think we'll be baking, with moves that include words like "roll" and "sugar", and you won't be far off as we explore the recipe for mixing them into more texture-rich dancing!

# 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: Connected Rhythm Games w/ Carla & Gilles ****
Join Carla & Gilles this October to learn new fun rhythms to expand your dancing movement vocabulary and get your partner connection to the next level. We will focus on partnership connection and get you to understand what feels best for your partner.

# 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: 6-count Lindy Hop w/ Carla & Gilles ***
Start dancing from day one! We will get you moving in this month-long series that will make you an expert on basic footwork, turns, wraps, breaks and jazzy stylin'. Includes 6 and 8-count moves, an introduction to the swing-out foundation, and more fun than a barrel of monkeys.

# PRE-REQUISITES: None. No partner required; just bring your enthusiasm and comfortable clothes!

*** ELECTIVE: Balboa Fundamentals w/ Margot & Richard ***
Originating in the Balboa Peninsula of Orange County, Balboa combines intricate footwork with smooth body movement, to create a dynamic and fast-paced dance that is fun to watch but even more fun to do! For everyone who wants to learn -- or revisit -- Balboa fundamentals, this four week series will get you up to speed with basic vocabulary and connection techniques, and get you out on the floor dancing Bal socially. We'll be covering the basic Balboa rhythm and core Pure Balboa and Bal-Swing figures, in preparation for the 7-week progressive series starting in November.

# PRE-REQUISITES: None. Please note that November-December 7-week series will build on the material taught in October.
