Are you curious about SILC but not sure where to start?
Do you enjoy the slower music but feel uncomfortable dancing to it?
Do you feel confident in your Ceroc dancing and feel like you’re ready to elevate your dancing?
If the answer to any of these is yes, then this workshop is for you!
This 3 hour workshop is the perfect gentle introduction to SILC, for Ceroc/MJ dancers who want to feel more comfortable and competent dancing to slower tempos and smoother music. This isn’t learning a whole new dance style - it’s about adapting your existing dance skills and moves, using SILC techniques to soften movements, improve connection and smooth out weight transfer
✨ 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗲’𝗹𝗹 𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿:
• What makes SILC different from standard Ceroc (in a simple, easy-to-understand way)
• The SILC essentials (basic steps) and a handful of SILC foundation moves
• SILC techniques to adapt familiar Ceroc moves/movements to fit slower tempos
• How to slow things down without feeling stuck or awkward
✨ 𝗪𝗵𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗽 𝗶𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿:
• Who enjoy slower music but who feel awkward dancing to it and would like to feel more comfortable on the freestyle floor
• Dancers who are comfortable dancing to slower music, but want their dancing to look smoother and flow more.
• Dancers who find Ceroc/MJ a little energetic and would like to learn a smoother variation.
✨𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗮𝘆:
• Clear, friendly instruction from experienced teachers
• Plenty of time to practise and ask questions
• A small, relaxed, encouraging atmosphere
• Supportive feedback to help you progress at your own pace
• Plenty of comfort breaks, with hot drinks, biscuits and light snacks provided.
SILC is about quality over quantity. It’s not just about slower dancing, it’s also about confidence, comfort, and enjoyment. You’ll leave the workshop with a set of skills that you can take straight onto the freestyle floor and adapt your dancing with. There’s no rushing, no pressure, and plenty of time to practice and ask questions.. Come ready to slow things down, refine your dancing, and discover a smoother side of Ceroc.
