18 Sep - 09 Oct West Coast Swing Mondays @ Platform Studio
Event description
Want to learn a fun, versatile dance? WEST COAST SWING is the answer!
Looking for a new hobby, or want to show off on the dance floor at your next special event?
West Coast Swing is a partner dance style that can be danced to a huge variety of music: pop, R&B, blues, hip hop, funk, k-pop and much more!
The 4-week Beginner Bootcamp is a crash course that caters to those who are complete beginners (no prior experience required), as well as dancers wanting to brush up on their basics and improve their technique!
Have completed the Beginner Bootcamp previously, feeling confident about your basics, and ready for a challenge? The Improvers (Level 2) Mini Workshops are for you! Each week we will focus on a different concept or skill that will take your dancing to the next level!
NEW SESSION ADDED!
Due to unprecedented demand, we have added a session at 6.15 - 7PM! The Intermediate (Level 3) Mini Workshops series will be run during this time slot. The pricing structure will be identical to that of the Improvers (L2) Mini Workshop series. Please contact us if you have been dancing West Coast Swing for a while, and are looking for a challenge!
You do not need to bring a partner in order to participate as the class will be rotational. Anyone can choose to learn as a lead or follow. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes. Always a good idea to bring a drink bottle and deodorant if you need it.
Bookings essential, tickets are limited. Secure your spot now!
