It's time for the next round of the DCS Dynamites! Come on out to auditions for our lindy hop performance team. This is a low-pressure group audition mainly focused on demonstrating basic 6 and 8 count patterns. It is recommended that you have taken a minimum of a few months of intermediate classes to join. This cycle will have rehearsals on Sundays throughout April and May, with performances in late May and early June. We will be taking a summer break in June and July, so this will be the last opportunity to join until fall!
