The first class (from 4-5:30 p.m.) will be that choreographed polka that's been a Bay Area institution for many years, the Bohemian National Polka. It has been danced often at East Bay Waltz, Friday Night Waltz, Gaskell Ball, Peers, Dickens Fair, and many other social dance events. Come learn it and in the process master your polka and pivots. Manish G teaches. Note that this is an intermediate class and assumes basic familiarity with the polka.
The introductory class (from 5:30-7 p.m.) will be on cross-step waltz, which is an exciting newer style of waltz danced to slower music. No experience or partner necessary! Robert G teaches. This "beginner lesson" is great for anyone who doesn't yet feel confident in 3/4, even if you've taken a lesson before.
And then, it's our social dance party (from 7-10 p.m.) with a mix of mostly waltzes, plus some polka, swing, latin, two-step, and more.
As always, EBW is a come-as-you-are, all ages, gender neutral, no-partner-required, ask anyone to dance event where we value consent and everyone is welcome.
