Switch (y más)

I'm excited to be doing another role rotation workshop where we will explore Switch as well as some other commonly used ways of changing roles in rueda (which can be combined with switch!)
Rueda Switch is a fun rueda format where the leaders and followers switch roles throughout the dance💃🏻↔️🕺It's a fun way to quickly double the chaos in a fast-paced flowing rueda!
Never danced rueda switch before?
No problem! At the start of the workshop we will introduce and revise the basic rules of switch before we move on to applying Switch concepts to common rueda calls. As long as you can both lead and follow in rueda then this workshop is for you!
An experienced switch dancer or attended switch workshops before?
No problem! It's important for everyone to revise the basic calls that I use each session because switch is a dynamically evolving style of rueda. There are different calls used to clarify exactly how and where the "switch!" is happening in different scenarios. There will always be a few new switch moves or transitions, so everyone will learn something new!
We will then be moving on to explore other common role rotation concepts, which can combine with Rueda Switch, and providing a whole new level of chaos and hilarity 😉
Not sure what to expect?
When dancing Rueda Switch, everyone needs to be able to both actively lead and actively follow in a rueda! This workshop is open to anyone who can both lead and follow in rueda and is aimed at intermediate/advanced level rueda dancers (ask if you're not sure whether it's for you!) You must be able to both lead and follow basic rueda calls independently and smoothly (eg dame, enchufle, directo, sacala/exhibela, sombrero, lazo, cero, pasaela) to join this workshop, so if you're not confident in one of your roles, I would highly recommend that you attend a few salsa and rueda classes in your less familiar role to prepare. Please let me know in rueda class if you want to practise your least confident role so that I can support you!
