What shall I wear to class?

Wear comfortable clothes.  Bring a pair of smooth-soled shoes (so you can pivot and turn easily, without sticking to the floor).

 

Do I need a partner?

No partner is needed for our classes.  In order to maximize learning, we rotate our leaders and followers throughout the class.  You are welcome to choose to remain with the partner you came with, but you will learn more and learn faster if you dance with a variety of people.

 

When can I move up to the Intermediate Lessons?

We recommend that students repeat the A, B, and C series at least once to become fully comfortable with the basic moves.  From there, we recommend taking the D series to become proficient at whips.  Then continue learning new moves for use on the social dance floor by taking our intermediate lessons. 

 

Most of all, come out and social dance with us!  Social dancing begins after Wednesday night lessons, right at Badger Bowl, at 8:00 pm.
