So about August...
We usually take a month off each Winter, but this time round

Thursdays will be all about Solo Jazz!!

What is Solo Jazz???? you ask...

Dancing by yourself - yes - but most often, alongside each other. Together we'll learn classic vernacular shapes, moves, and combos and how to combine them. Tips and ways to join them together with flow and intention. We'll explore different songs, artists, history, styles and encourage improvisation.

August 6th Everyone Welcome!! - It's really just gonna be a mini party. We'll have a boogie, groove around, learn a few steps and dance to some jazz. Let's bring snacks/drinks if that pleases, I'll make hot tea!
