All levels. Suitable for beginners and those with experience. No partner needed. Couples friendly. You do not need to rotate.
Two awesomely fun dances. The exhilarating Hustle. This is the dance that kept partner dancing alive during the 1970s and 1980s. Hustle inspired the cool moves you see in Salsa. Hustle helps you learn precision and turning.
Lindy Style Swing is the most versatile of the partner dances. We dance to the great music of the classic swing and jazz era as well as lots of newer music up to contemporary times. You dance at a comfortable speed. Lindy Style Swing is a great dance for learning musicality and improvisation. If you are a West Coast Swing dancer, you can use all your West Coast Swing moves in Lindy.
Cost:
$35 for three Mondays, or
$60 for three Mondays and three Thursdays, or
$15 per night.
Thursdays start January 26 and include Argentine Tango, West Coast Swing and Salsa.
