It’s been a while!!

Welcome back to:
CORE MOVEMENTS & APPLICATIONS
~ a working title ~ 😅

This series is here to help out my beginner/improver audiences! Try these steps at home BEFORE you go to a lesson, or line dance social! In this sixth episode:
✨K-Steps✨

Note: my goal with the series is to get my beginner and improver level dancers to be more confident in joining lessons and on social floors, not to say that this is the exact proper technique for those that want to pursue it as a serious discipline. My hope is that by making the structure more accessible and informal, we can expand our love and light and joy to a broader audience - dance is our birthright!

CAN I GET A YEEHAW?!

It is a lighter week for my public lessons so don’t miss these opportunities! Queen Bee's will be a GREAT one to attend for those of you that have either A) attended our workshops this month, or B) keep going to line dance socials and feeling lost in HOW everybody KNOWS what is happening! (PS - Watch my reel on 10 Know-Before-You-Go Tips!)

Then on Friday, y’all already know Country • Live Music • Dancing • Concerts • Nightlife 🤠🍻 is a GREAT time! I’ll be bringing my dance Nice to Meet You (NDF #1) out there with some other favorites. Might even premiere my newest choreography with Jeremiah Aquino - stay tuned on that 🤩

If you are new to my page, welcome! I am here to be your social dancing butterfly guide on how to find just a little more joy in your day-to-day - through humor, dance and community! 🦋

With all the hubbub I forgot to post this on my Instagram!! It’s been on my tiktok but no wonder people were asking if U31 was happening 😂☠️

SALOON SUNDAY 9/27!!

Here’s our line-up:

Music starts 7pm, line dance social throughout the night!

Lesson schedule will vary by flow of the evening:

First lesson “as early as” 7:15pm -
Goin Hamm (BEG)

Second lesson “as early as” 7:45pm -
Dizzy (IMP)

Third lesson “as early as” 8:30pm -
Choosin Texas (BEG)

Which lesson are YOU most excited for?? 🤩

—

U31 (North Park, San Diego)
3112 University Ave

21+ venue, no cover

Dance list on my Instagram story the day of - requests are taken but never guaranteed! Have a few to get excited for!

Difficulty of dances during the social will range from Beginner - Advanced.
NOTE: Beginner dancers - the best place to learn is my Wednesday classes at Queen Bee’s! Come to U31 for the fun, then visit Queen Bee’s to get comfortable!

Bring friends for the free entertainment and encourage them to buy lots of drinks to support our evening of dancing! (Fresh watermelon fans, try the Rosa!) Dancers are encouraged to indulge, so long as they are still able to move with the flow of floor traffic 😏

Beginner dancers advice:
* During lessons, be in the CENTER of the floor/FRONT so you always have someone to follow!
* During social dances, see what movements you recognize and jump in on the SIDES to pick up what you can
* LISTEN for when beginner dances are called out so you have a higher success ratio - and come dance by me!
