Solo Blues - Newcomer

Class description

This course is your ticket to the world of (solo) blues dancing: from the first simple steps to moving to the music, to a short choreography in the second part of the course. In between, we will focus on different rhythms (from single time to shuffle), learn fancy footwork (from simple steps to James Brown) and find out what we can do with our arms and hips (spoiler: more than you think).

This course is for you if you love blues music and know that even when dancing alone on the dance floor, you're not really alone. Previous experience with solo jazz or swing dances such as Lindy Hop is an advantage but not a must.

For anyone with previous experience in solo jazz or Lindy Hop.
