This week we kick off a month of learning how to dance to different styles of Blues and Jazz. Over the course of the month we’ll be covering hard-driving Chicago Blues, some trad jazz, and R&SB-style Blues!

We’re starting things off with a lesson by Gui and Jenn on how to dance to the hard-driving sounds (think Chicago Blues, primarily, and Blues with funk influences) that Gui is so fond of playing. We’ll be showing you movements and isolations that match the sharpness and attack of the music while keeping the connection feeling good.

Once the lesson ends, we have Gui Cavalcantii and Micki Balder throwing down some hard-driving Blues for us all night long!

The intermediate lesson is from 7:30 to 8:30, and the beginner lesson is from 8:30 to 9:00. The lesson and dance cost $10 combined, and just the lesson or the dance cost $5 each.

Alright, here we go! We’re back from our holiday hiatus and ready to rock your world.

This Thursday we’re kicking the New Year off right with a Blues Clinic with Gui Cavalcanti, Jenn Martinez, Paul Mandel, and Julie Brown. From 7:30 to 9:00, all levels of dancers from newcomer to advanced can walk in, practice in a safe environment, and get personal attention from any of our four instructors. We’re essentially offering miniature private lessons for all of $5 – you can’t get a better deal anywhere else!

Once we wrap up the Blues Clinic, we’re going to have ourselves a DJ battle. This week we have Julie Brown taking on John Brooks and Gui Cavalcanti taking on Amy Kucharik! In our battles, DJs switch off every song, guaranteeing fresh and exciting music by keeping our DJs on their toes.

Come shake off your holiday slump with some hot Blues!
