on the swing dance social dance floor
with LESTA & JAY
What❓
A fun and friendly creative exploratory workshop all about navigating the social floor.
- What dance techniques can we use to help us navigate busy spaces and still enjoy dancing?
- How can we be mindful, look after each other in the space and prevent injury?
- How does etiquette play and can it be fun?

When❓
Saturday 16th November 2024
2-4pm

Who❓
On any dance floor, there are all sorts of people, dancing with different partners, styles and at different levels. We all exist on one floor, and so we are going to explore all together in this workshop
This is open to all styles of swing; lindyhop, balboa, collegiate shag, blues, solo, freestyle/whatever you fancy.
This is an open level class, whether you’re a beginner and wanting to learn, or an advanced dancer with their floorcraft down but curious about hearing from a person with a unique perspective. It would be fab if you have some knowledge of swing dancing and been to at least few different socials to get the most out of the class. Some experience of being on the social dance floor will be useful.
