TONIGHT -- Intermediate / Advanced follower lesson with Rachel Stirling
posted: Dec 15th 2011 :: 4:30pm
Hey All! We're way overdue for another Intermediate/Advanced workshop, so we're keeping the energy going from bamBLOOZled with one from DC's own Rachel Stirling. This workshop will focus on techniques for following and is open to both guys and girls (anyone who took Ben and Rachel's beginner lesson two weeks ago can tell you how useful it is for guys to try their hand at following).
The class goes from *7:45-9:00* and is only $10. That's a great price for over an hour of instruction AND you get a discount into the dance at half price! Win-win!
Out-Of-Town Events
Some say our locals should travel more. More? I think DC knows how to show up at another event and represent, but it can't hurt to encourage you all to travel more for dancing. It's a great way to help grow the community, make new friendships, and bring back new ideas to Washington, D.C. Here is a list of upcoming blues-dancing events you might want to check out:
