July class registration is open. Class this month is all about musicality and style.
In our Intermediate class (6pm), we are going to explore how Lindy Hop footwork is structured, how to make up improvisations on your own as well as going through some of the classic improvisations. By the end of four weeks, you will have handled a bunch of classic steps plus you’ll have a new understanding that will give you infinite future variations. Make your dancing look effortless, and express it in new ways.
In our Advanced class (7pm), we are going to be studying everything about me musicality from the macro to the micro musical structure, different approaches to the beat ways to open up your dancing and what it looks like when you truly understand what’s going on inside the music. This will be part dancing, part experimentation, part demonstration, part lecture, and even a little homework. At the end of the four weeks, our goal is to change the way that you experience swing dancing. Great for social dancers that want to be better without learning new moves, competitors and choreographers.
Since July is five Wednesdays - on the last Wednesday we’re going to have a special intermediate and advanced routine choreographed by Dianne. She will challenge you and help you focus on ways to bring out the music with the way that you express it.
