Swing on Saturday
Event Information
Description
Swing on Saturdays is a new night for the Dublin swing dancing scene. Its focus is to run short progressive courses (in a studio with mirrors!) followed by social dancing/practice. Our first block will feature two classes back-to-back: a solo class and a lindy hop class. We are very fortunate to have found a wonderful city centre location in Temple Bar and hope to see you there!
Solo Jazz: 19:00-20:00
Our solo class will be covering the famous Shim Sham choreography in depth. The moves will be thoroughly explained and the routine rehearsed plenty. We plan for you to leave this course with lots of confidence doing the routine on the social dance floor!
Lindy Hop: 20:00-21:00
The partner class is technique-oriented, focusing on the foundation of leading and following in Lindy Hop. It is suitable for people who already have some experience with Lindy Hop (you should be very comfortable with the 6 and 8-count rhythms) and are keen to work on their technique. Lydia and Olga will be teaching the course.
Practice/Social: 21:00-22:00
The price of each individual course is €40 with a €10 discount for booking both. If you just want to come to the practice/social, there is a cover charge of €4. Early registration is advised as we will be attempting to balance the lead and follow roles for more efficient classes.
