We have lots of fun things coming for you guys in February and March! You can check them out on the calendar, or you can just keep reading.
Saturday evenings are going strong at Nothin' But Swing. We even have a live band coming in on Saturday, February 25th! Devon McCagherty will be bringing us a fantastic 5-piece band to dance our feet off.
The following week, a new session of Red Hot Swing classes will start up:
Swing 1 begins on Wednesday February 29th from 8pm to 9:30pm, and ends six weeks later on April 4th. As usual, you don't need a partner or any experience for this beginner series. All of our dance classes are taught at Dance Victoria studio, 2750 Quadra Street just north of Hillside.
Swing 2 will be 7:35pm to 9pm on Sundays, from February 26th to April 1st (no joke!). We will build on the foundation you learned in Swing 1, giving you a whole pile of fun, useful, and wacky moves while also improving your dance technique. If you've learned to dance somewhere else, this is our usual recommended entry point to Red hot Swing classes.
Swing 3 runs from 6pm to 7:25pm also on Sundays, from February 26th to April 1st. You'll learn how to do a new set of basics that you will have been wondering about, as well as the classic Shim Sham routine, and the usual complement of Charleston. You'll need to have done Swing 2 with us or receive instructor permission to take this series.
To reserve your spot in your class, just use this finely-crafted and elegant link.
The last item on this update is the next assisted practice. We just ran an insanely popular one a couple of days ago, and there was much enthusiasm at the prospect of doing another one. So here's the deal: Tuesday March 6th, from 8pm to 9:30pm at Dance Victoria studio. I'll play music for the hour and a half, and you can work on whatever you like. Both Christabel and I will be available to help you on anything you want. It's like a semi-private lesson crossed with a social dance for a mere $5. You don't even have to register - just show up and have fun!
That's all for this update! See you on the dancefloor,
