West Coast Swing Begynder Workshops 5. januar + Social
Er du nysgerrig på West Coast Swing? Måske du har set nogle af de mange fantastiske WCS videoer som kan findes på Instagram, Youtube, Tiktok og Facebook. Og måske du (ligesom os) tænker at denne her dans er simpelhent for lækker og det må jeg bare lære ;-)
West Coast Swing er en populær partnerdans, der har sine rødder i Lindy Hop. WCS kendt for sine bløde og elastiske bevægelser, god connection mellem partnere samt fokus på improvisation.
Et af de vigtigste kendetegn ved West Coast Swing er dets tilpasningsevne til forskellige musikstilarter, herunder moderne pop, blues, R&B og jazz.
Nu har du igen mulighed for at lære basistrinene i WCS på to intense workshops, det giver dig en god start på vores kommende level 1 begynderkursus.
Der er stor rift om pladserne, så vi anbefaler at du tilmelder dig så hurtigt som muligt og gerne med en dansepartner men også ok uden ;-)

Program Søndag den 5. januar
kl. 15.45-16.00 Dørene åbner og du kan registrere dig.
Kl. 16.00-17.30 Workshop 1 for begyndere
Kl. 17.30-18.00 Pause
kl. 18.00-19.30 Workshop 2 for begyndere
Kl. 19.30-21.30 Practica/Social
Du kan medbringe mad, som du kan spise i pausen eller under praktikaen, der er også mulighed for at bestille/hente mad i området.
Vi anbefaler at du er med på begge workshops også selvom du har prøvet nogle af basistrinene før, de er simple nok at lære, men det tager lidt tid at mestre dem og ikke mindst den skønne elastiske connection, som er kendetegnet ved WCS. Vi vil gennemgå connection, left side pass og under arm turn (også kaldt right side pass) Sugar Push, Sugar tuck, Whip og evt. lidt flere trin alt efter hvor meget vi kan nå. Repetition er vigtig for vores muskelhukommelse ;-)

West Coast Swing Beginners Workshops + Social 5th of January
Are you curious about West Coast Swing? Perhaps you have seen some of the many fantastic WCS videos that can be found on Instagram, Youtube, Tiktok and Facebook. And maybe you (like us) think that this dance is just too delicious and that you just have to learn it ;-)
West Coast Swing is a popular partner dance that has its roots in the Lindy Hop. WCS known for its soft and elastic movements, good connection between partners and focus on improvisation. One of the main characteristics of West Coast Swing is its adaptability to different styles of music, including modern pop, blues, R&B and jazz.
Once again you will have the opportunity to learn the basic steps in WCS in two intense workshops, that will give you a good start on our upcoming level 1 beginner course.
Program Sunday 5th of January
at 15.45-16.00 The doors open and you can register.
At 16.00-17.30 Workshop 1 for beginners
At 17.30-18.00 Break

At 19.30-21.30 Practical/Social
You can bring food that you can eat during the break or during the practica, it is also possible to order/pick up food in the area.
We recommend that you take part in both workshops even if you have tried some of the basic steps before, they are simple enough to learn, but it takes some time to master them and not least the wonderful elastic connection that is characterised by WCS. We will go through connection, left side pass and under arm turn (also called right side pass), Sugar Push, Sugar tuck, Whip and possibly. a few more steps depending on how much we can achieve. Repetition is important for our muscle memory ;-)
