Friday Evening

With the fantastic Django's Tiger playing all the fast tunes to start off our weekend.

7pm - Taster Class - Switching between Balboa and Shag

There are no sign ups, everyone's invited!

So, you want to try out a bit of both dances with this partner? Or perhaps the music changes mid song? In this class, Izzy and Immy will explore how to move between Balboa and Shag. Focusing on keeping the feel of the dances distinctive while being able to respond to the music and have a couple of easy transitions between the dances, and a chance to figure out some of your own ideas too...

Requirements: you will know the basic footwork of both Collegiate Shag and Balboa.

Social Dancing 8pm - midnight
