CLASS DESCRIPTIONS

Intro to WCS - Start your evening off by learning a few WCS steps before the BIGGEST Swing Night starts! 

Beginner - Fundamental 6-beat patterns with emphasis on lead / follow, connection, footwork and timing.
When to Advance:   The men can lead the basics on time, or the women follow the basics without anticipation, and both can dance to the beat, with a smile.

Intermediate - You are at an Intermediate level if you can dance the Newcomer and Beginning patterns successfully.  This class has more complex patterns, more subtle leads and follows.
When to Advance:  The men lead on time with subtle leads, or the women follow without anticipation.

Advance - You are at an Advanced level when you can dance the Intermediate level patterns with subtlety and are ready to start listening to music for the breaks and play within the music.  You will learn better connection so that the music becomes part of the dance.
