>THE PRACTICUM & DANCE<
Think of practicum as a social dance with relaxed etiquette. Ask for help, offer advice, work on a project, or just social dance like usual.
After the jam, we DJ music just like a regular social dance.
>>Have a specific question?
Experienced dancers and local teachers are available at practicum to help out with sticky spots.
>> Balboa? Shag? Solo? Learning swingouts?
Let the DJ know what you're working on if you have specific music requests!
This building is physically accessible to enter. If you have accessibility concerns, please contact PLS.
