West Coast Swing Lessons and Party
Every Thursday in Norwalk, CT
Although West Coast Swing can be traced back to the 1940's, its contemporary form is one of the most versitle partner dances. It is highly musically interpretive and can be done to many different styles of music. Unlike its bouncy counter-part, Lindy-Hop, West Coast Swing is smooth, sometimes funky, and always sexy.
* No partner required.
Times:
7:15pm: Arrival (Mingling, light refreshments)
7:30pm: Beginner West Coast Swing class
Erik will guide you through the basic steps & timing of Hustle. Each week will review and progress. These classes are designed for the true beginner but experienced dancers are always encouraged to refine their technique and knowledge.
8:30pm: Intermediate/Advanced West Coast Swing: Erik creates a challenging Routine.
Erik either teaches a choreographed West Coast Swing routine or cool moves. Learning a routine helps learn sequences of movement and how they apply to music.
*This class is by invitation. Please check with Erik prior to attending this class. Beginners are allowed to watch or await the dance party while mingling.
