In October, the Art of Dance will no longer have its downtown Madison location. Instead, attend the studio’s classes held at wonderful facilities in the Madison area. See “Held At” (below).
This Group Class will meet each Wednesday from 7:30-8:45pm beginning 17 October 2007 (no class the day before Thanksgiving) for a total of eight sessions.
We will focus the majority of class time on LA-Style Salsa (breaks on the one-count, featuring lots of cross body leads), though we will also cover some Rotary Style (aka Miami or Cubano Style) Salsa, featuring many turns and spins for both the leads and the follows.
In this 75-minute class meeting for a total of eight sessions, you will learn energetic, fluid, compact Salsa dancing, featuring many spins, turns, and changes of place.
The class will heavily emphasize creating a solid constant connection between the lead and follow and how to use that connection throughout the entire dance and in every move that we create!
This class assumes participants have solid experince with leading, following, partner dancing in general (Salsa dancing specifically) and will move at a pace appropriate for Intermediate-to-Advanced Dancers.
In addition to a number of exciting new moves, you will work on Cuban motion (hips), fancy footwork, arm styling, syncopation, body rolls, and freezes.
You do not need to enroll with a partner. Expect frequent partner changes and numerous group activities and exercises.
Pre-registration is required. Contact the Instructor to reserve space in this class.
