This series is designed for beginner-intermediate dancers who already feel comfortable with 6-count basics and want to build stronger rhythm, musicality, and more fluid & confident movement while continuing to grow their vocabulary. Experience with 8-count is helpful, but not required.
In this four week series, we’ll focus on refining core skills like timing, pulse, frame, and partner communication, then apply them to new shapes, transitions, and variations. You’ll explore fresh material each week, learning how to move beyond memorized patterns and create dances that feel grounded, musical, and connected.
This class is about deepening your foundation and expanding what you can do with it so you leave with both stronger fundamentals and new ideas to play with on the social floor!
