We are back and continuing our series already in progress:

Artistry (7:30-8:30)
with Ruth Evelyn & Mike Grosser
We spend a lot of class time working on technique. This month, it’s time to focus on artistry! What stands out to you in the music? Why might you make a particular styling choice at a given moment? How do you develop your own style? Come explore these questions and more.

Blues Basics: Struttin’ & Improvisation (8:30-9:30)
With Ruth Evelyn & Mike Grosser
This month, each week covers a different topic. Some weeks, we’ll work on Struttin’–a close embrace dance great for mid-to-uptempo blues–and work on close embrace connection, footwork, and zippy turns. Other weeks, we’ll learn how to listen to the music, find your own basic, and build a beautiful dance to any style of blues music.

Steve York and Mike Grosser will be behind the DJ booth for your dancing pleasure.

As always, the lesson is $5, and the dance an additional $5.
