Description

Sign up is for couples/partners

The 'Swing' is as versatile as the music it is performed to. In just 5 weeks you will learn the basics to two of the more popular and easy to learn “straight forward” Swing patterns, the 4-ct. Western/Pop Swing and the 3-ct. Street Hustle. A variety of adapted Latin Swing patterns (Merengue, Cha Cha, Mambo, and Salsa) will also be introduced in the class. Dancers will swing to Rock, Pop, Country, Big Band, and Latin tunes. Proper leading, following, and hand positioning skills, as-well-as rhythmic skills will be taught. Beginning through intermediate level moves and twirls will be taught using the "Dance Move building Block" method. Once one pattern is learned, the remaining patterns become easier to add on. Dancers will even have the opportunity to develop and create their own dance moves and amalgamations utilizing the “Dance Move Paradigm” method. Class is designed for the beginning dancer and no dance experience is necessary. Practice dance music and links to YouTube instructional videos will be provided so participants can practice at home in between classes. Video taping of instructor reviewing and teaching new dances and dance moves is permitted. For ease of movement on the dance floor, please wear shoes not sneakers. You must register 2 people for this class. To do this, add a quantity of 1 to your cart. You will be prompted to add your partner's name before final check-out. Enrollment is limited to fifteen (15) couples.
