*Play it Cool: Fast Dancing (10:30am-Noon)*
You don’t have to actually play it fast and loose when it comes to fast dancing! Ramp up your fast dancing technique while also relaxing into the music with your partner. We will get your feet moving quicker and you will most likely also experience an adrenaline high because swinging out fast is the BEST. Wear comfortable clothes and sneakers because you will SWEAT!
*Game it Out: Partner Charleston (12:15-1:45)*
Let’s bounce it out with some fresh takes on Partner Charleston. We will show you some fun combos and ways to string them together on the social floor. Be aware: you might actually start to prefer dancing to faster tempos because when Partner Charleston fits “in the pocket” it can be addictive. Again: wear comfortable clothes and sneakers because the forecast for sweating is 100%.
*Two Can Play That Game: Communication and Connection (3:00-4:30)*
How can you play into your partner’s hands? We’re not sure what that means either! But connecting and communicating with your partner is an essential part of the dance. We will work on ways to hone that connection while also focusing on listening to each other and being game for new ideas.

*Play it by Ear: Musicality (4:45-6:15)*
The dance floor is your playground so you don’t always have to play it safe when messing around to the music. We might get a little experimental with different ways of changing our movement as we respond to the music.
