  • 4 hours of Collegiate Shag instruction (advanced) with Sarah and Jeremy
    • Title: "Unlock the Magic: Elevate Your Shag Through Connection & Musicality" 
    • Description:  During this four-hour workshop, we'll help students work on refining fundamental body techniques so that they can explore new possibilities in their shag. For the first half of class, we'll focus on building individual body awareness and mechanics to help you connect to yourself and your partner. Together, we'll work through variations in posture, fun movement flows, and share some of our favorite practice drills to fine-tune body technique and expand your shag horizons! During the second half of the workshop, we'll apply these techniques to help students connect to the music on a deeper level and discover their individual voice through curiosity and self-assessment. 
  • 4 hours of Balboa instruction (advanced) with Annabel and Bobby
    • Free Your Feet:  Improvisation can be trained in many ways. One way we train our improvisation is a fun method that you can use for the rest of your dancing life: We'll use footwork substitutions to create a lot more individual freedom in Bal-Swing. 
    • The Spirit of Pure Balboa:  Pure Balboa is a unique swing dance for several reasons, and once you understand them, you'll see the dance in a whole new light, and perhaps may be happy doing it for the next seventy years just like the original dancers. We'll dance our way to understanding this beautiful swing dance. 
    • Cliff-Diving:  Let's explore a dancing experience that will grow your trust, your confidence, your voice, your capacity for fun, and your dancing resilience all at once. Sound crazy? Well, it kind of is. And that's why you'll love it.   
    • Advanced Comfort & Legs: True advanced dancing is about fine-tuning technique. For this "master" style class, we'll focus specifically on the relationship between comfort and connection, as well as how to best utilize the power of our biggest muscle groups to make our dancing overall much more powerful.
