Blues dance intensive for beginners

Welcome to a Saturday full of blues!

The day will start at 11:00 with an intensive blues workshop. The workshop is suitable for anyone who is new to blues. It helps, but is not required, if you have some previous dance experience from other dance styles since we will keep a fast pace and go through a lot of material! 

Blues is a family of african-american dances with varied rhythms, speeds and expresssion, and can be danced both partnered and solo. Most of them are danced primarily in closed embrace and are very focused on the connection between the dancers, while leaving plenty of room for individual expression and creativity. We will go through several styles during the workshop so expect to use both your brain and your body!

During these classes we will follow the ELEF format - everybody leads, everybody follows, meaning you will learn both roles. As a bonus there are never any empty spots in the rotation. ;)
