Hello Swing 101 Dancers,
Congratulations on completing class 2 of Swing 101. You are swing dancing!
Below is a summary of what you will learn next and have learned so far.
After safety, the most important thing is to have confidence to go dance and enjoy yourselves.
Mark your calendar for Sunday November 27 for your graduation party and Thanksgiving Swing Dance. This will give you a chance to put what you learned into practice. There will be a lesson from 6 to 7 and dancing from 7 to 9:30.
