Local dancer and choreographer Rachel Hayes is offering exclusive intermediate West Coast Swing dance classes at monca to kick off the new year 🎶Each session begins with an all-levels activity from 6:00-6:45PM and is followed by intermediate level West Coast Swing variations and stylings from 7:00-7:45PM. Folks must have previous West Coast Swing Dance experience to participate effectively in the 7-7:45PM part of the classes ✨
By the end of the series, students will increase their proficiency in the foundational basics of West Coast Swing. Variations will be added for those seeking more of a challenge.
Participants do not need to come with a dancing partner, as partnerships will be randomized and folks will dance with many different partners per class.
