CRASH COURSE! CONNECTION-FOCUSED! Gentle but intensive WCS crash course workshops SPECIFICALLY for Lindy Hop dancers (including teachers). Be awesome fast!

INSTANT BEGIN./INTERMEDIATE WCS 
UPDATE: POSTPONED! (due to Lindyfest). New date TBA.
Sunday March 15, 2:00-5:00 PM - $45 (Lindy Hop teachers: $25)
Lindy Hoppers: You already know a lot — 6-count, 8-count, triples, pass-bys, tucks, swingouts, etc. We'll leverage that for maximum learning!
• Prerequisite: You know SwingOuts. 
• If needed, we'll divide the room into 2 groups, to give Advanced Lindy Hop folks a lot more to chew on, and everyone else a little more breathing room. With luck, a few pure WCS folks will join us.
• At 5 PM, we'll head to a "blues & soul" super friendly WCS dance on 37th St, if you are game (optional, not included).
​• If you are not at Lindyfest in Texas, come play with us!

PART 2: INSTANT BEGIN./INTERMED/(maybe even ADVANCED) WCS
UPDATE: POSTPONED! (due to Lindyfest). New date TBA.
Sunday March 22, 2:00-4:00 PM - $45 (Lindy Hop teachers: $25)
Brief review of March 15. Then onward! Only 2 hours today. Pretty intensive!
• At 4 PM, we'll head to a super friendly WCS dance in Chinatown – my favorite local social dance! – if you are game (optional, not included – bonus: a lot of folks go to an excellent Filipino restaurant at 7 pm afterwards).​
PREREQUISITES: 
     (1) You agree to change into shoes with clean soles (or your socks) to protect the studio floor! Also: bring water, and a shirt change.

     (3) You know SwingOuts.

Videos of Ken & Paula. These are 100% improvisational. We handed the DJ a list of 6 different songs and said, "please pick any one."
