April Progressive Classes (4-week series) - Intro to Swing and Swing Variety!
Details
Our Progressives Lessons continue in April!
This series will start on April 2nd and will run until April 23rd on Wednesday nights. We will have an Introduction to Swing from 6:00 to 7:00 and Swing Variety from 7:00 to 8:00.
What is Swing Variety you ask?
Well, we wanted to introduce a number of swing dance styles and then get feedback on what folks would like to learn next.
Introduction to Swing:
This class will introduce new dancers to East Coast Swing, Charleston and Lindy Hop. The 4-week series will start by introducing basic 6-count footwork, rock solid lead follow technique as well as a number of moves that can be transitioned to the dance floor right away. We will then incorporate some Charleston and Lindy Hop. This progressive class is geared towards dancers who have never danced before. Join our welcoming swing dance community by signing up for Introduction to Swing today!
We encourage students to take all four classes in the series and after the second week we do not allow new students to join.
Swing Variety:
Week 1: Shim Sham - Sophia and Eicke
Week 2: Charleston - Sophia and Eicke
Week 3: Shag - Felicia and Ram
Week 4: Balboa - Ron and Sami
Each of these 1-hour classes will be beginner friendly, and our primary goal is to introduce each dance to folks who may not be familiar. Each of these classes would also be really good for those who would like to have a refresher.
We encourage students to take all four classes. Having said that, however, because of the variety nature of this month's classes we will allow students to drop in for the Swing Variety classes.
Please remember for our beginner classes and swing variety classes we absolutely love beginners, and no partner is ever needed.
Dance shoes and/or socks will be required at the Masonic Temple Ballroom going forward. If you have questions about this requirement, please reach out to us.
Also, please, please, please mention us to your friends. We have found that word of mouth is the best way to get the message out that Fort Collins is a swinging town.
Because these classes are both four-week series, we will be charging $40 per series. That averages out to $10 a class! Also, if for some reason you cannot afford $40 for swing dance lessons, please reach out to us at [contact@nocoswingdance.com](mailto:contact@nocoswingdance.com). NoCo Swing Dance wants everyone to have the opportunity to learn this amazing dance.
We take Venmo (@NoCo-SwingDance) or cash or check on or before the first night. Please arrive early so we can get you checked in. Also, if you know you will be attending, please email us so we can get a head count at [contact@nocoswingdance.com](mailto:contact@nocoswingdance.com). We would like to know if you would like to lead or follow and which class you would like to attend.
If you would like to get our weekly "In The Dance Newsletter" please send us an email to [contact@nocoswingdance.com](mailto:contact@nocoswingdance.com).
