All that Jazz - and Swing, Swing, Swing! |
Learn a great jazz combination and then throw in some swing!As dance enthusiasts, we are always searching for historical relevance in the famous - and infamous - dance of each generation. First, we will warm-up with jazz that highlights popular steps of the 1920s as we complete a dance inspired by the Broadway show "Chicago". Then move to the Jitterbug Stroll of the 1940s with music by Stephen Mitchell, a major influence in Lindy Hop Swing. Suitable for all ages – join in the excitement of this high-energy session! |
