Looking for a fun way to spend a Saturday? Why not learn how to beef up your dancing with Charleston?! Charleston can be danced with someone OR solo. We will be learning the basics of Charleston, Side-by-side, Tandem and Solo 😀 It’s a lot to put into the time we have, but we believe you can handle it!!!! This dance is so versatile. You can dance Charleston for a whole night or sprinkle it in the mix of your other swing moves! No partner? No problem! We will teach you some pretty cool moves to rock it on your own! Great for brand-new beginners but also perfect for those who want to learn more after doing the Charleston portion of Swing Stew. Teachers will be Jeff Benoit, Megan Crawford and Amy Yardley.
Class 1 – Don’t kick me please! 2:00 – 3:00pm. We will go over the fundamentals of this fun dance style and give you some wicked fun things to use in any of your dances!
Class 2 – Kick it up Charleston! 3:05-4:05pm. Did someone say cross hand hold and smooth transitions? How about break variations and Stomps. Do we have your attention?
Class 3 – Solo Charleston 4:25-5:25pm. Ever hear a great song and want to dance but there is no one to dance with? Or maybe you just want to express yourself by yourself. Come learn a whole bunch of awesome Material. Here is a hint: Your feet will be happy!!
Class 4 – Tandem tricks and Tangles 5:30-6:30pm. Oh yeah. It’s tandem time BABY!!! You’ve seen it on the floor, now learn how to do it yourself. Learn how to step by step get in and out of this cool position, and do some fun extras along the way :D.
