Reno Swings! Format Changes
January 3, 2018
We are kicking off the new year with a new format for our Wednesday night swing dance.
WHAT IS STAYING THE SAME?
We will still be offering our drop-in Jitterbug class at 7 PM, followed by social dancing afterwards (around 8 PM). This class will still be open to brand new dancers… no pre-requisites and no partner needed. Cost is $10 per class (includes social dancing) and $7 for students.
WHAT IS NEW?
We will be offering a progressive (month-long) Lindy Hop class ALSO AT 7 PM (we will be using both rooms). Lindy Hop is a bit more intricate than Jitterbug, so we are offering it as a 4-week series starting the first week of each month. Additionally, this class has a pre-requisite that you have taken 2 months (8 weeks) of Jitterbug classes… this will help the class move faster, as we will be building on the techniques that we teach in Jitterbug. This class costs $40 for the series (4 weeks), $25 for students. We allow drop ins the first week of the month ONLY with this class. Social dancing is also included.
What is Lindy Hop, you ask? Here is a short video explanation: What is Lindy Hop?
WHAT IS HAPPENING AT 6 PM?
We will be opening up the hall for a guided practice for experienced dancers between 6 and 7 PM. PREREQUISITE: this practice is designed for dancers who have taken at least 2 months of Lindy Hop classes – it will provide opportunities to fine tune and continue progressing beyond Lindy Hop basics. There is no charge for this practice session IF you are attending one of the 7 PM classes. As a stand alone, the cost is $5 per practice.
