This is a **shuffle**/**cutting shapes** class for beginner and intermediate shufflers where we'll be working on **combos**. **Beginner shufflers** will get the chance to learn some basic steps and practice them stress-free in short combos to various speeds. **Intermediate shufflers** will learn to vary these basic steps with additional leg and arm movements, learn to combine them in new ways, keep practicing their foundations, and try to integrate the new combos into their freestyle. If you're a complete beginner and wanna try some basic moves by yourself before the class, you can watch this video on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xOAJA598uk But you don't have to - don't worry and come just by! **What you need to bring with you:** **Shoes**: If you'd prefer not to shuffle in socks, please bring a pair of dedicated clean athletic shoes with white soles. **Water**: because Shuffling is like an intense cardio workout :) **Fee**: 10€ (in cash or paypal **after** the event) to cover the cost of the rent, because we're not doing it for profit.

Because it’s marketed this way I have to call this a Heaven Shall Burn show, but it’s really about The Black Dahlia Murder, one of the finest technical melodeath acts ever to be. Also, The Halo Effect and Frozen Soul, who are both solid bands. It’s a bit of a weird tour package given that Heaven Shall Burn is very firmly metalcore, but there’s something for everyone on this lineup; the more melodic side of melodeath,blackened sonic assaults, and frenzied riff-fests abound here.
