Do you like 'Dirty Dancing'...?
This is a free dance class for beginners wanting to know how to dance any dance to any music with any partner.
Hi, everyone! I'm L-Jay and I'm in Barcelona for a month. I thought it would be fun to get a group together to teach them the foundations of social dance. I've been teaching dance professionally for over twenty years - I'm a retired pro and choreographer (Modern/Jazz/ Physical Theatre), and have taught the 'Dirty Dancing' style for longer (trained at the original AM studios).
The Dirty Dancing style is rather a philosophy essentially modernising standard dances to your own personal style and music tastes. The learning gives you the foundation of all dances – the elements, footwork, lead/follow, and steps that are in every dance – so you can dance any dance, to any music, with any partner.
This is NOT a Bachata, Salsa, Tango or Lindy Hop class but a class to become a dancer of everything. I will also introduce other dance rhythms that clubs don't teach so you can learn to dance to lots of other styles of music too – Jazz, Rock, Soul, R&B, Disco, Bossa Nova, Samba... etc.
DATE
Monday 22 Aug
(*Depending on rain! If it does, I will move the event to another day.)
TIME
20.00-21.30
1 hour lesson and 30min of practice.
PRICE
Free... Yes, this is a free offer - just for fun. :D
LOCATION
The class will be outdoors in a public location near Monument a Colom - the exact spot will be announced an hour before the class start. (It's in this area so I have good time to get there after work.)
TEACHING LANGUAGE
The lesson will be in English (sorry, I don't speak Spanish, yet).
EXTRA INFO
• We dance in pairs but you don't need to bring a partner - we will swap partners often so you can learn faster.
• Wear comfortable clothes with trainers.
• Bring water!!
***It would be great if you can confirm if you are going - under 30 people is good as I don't have a mic for teaching.
If you have any questions, just ask and I will answer them in the feed so everyone can have the intel.
Note - this event came about because of interest from the Barcelona Expat Free Activities
