Tango, Rumba, Cha Cha: Beginning level 4-week dance class, with field trip after

Explore the wild side of the dance floor as we learn the dances you have always wanted to learn, but never had a chance.


These are the dances made famous by the movies, touring shows, classical poses, and Dancing With The Stars.

We will learn the basics of the haunting/dramatic Tango, exuberant/elegant Cha Cha Cha, and sensuous/flirtatious Rumba. (Time permitting, we may do a 4th dance. Samba? Bolero? Cumbia?)

These dances can be danced to Salsa music, Jazz music, Top 40 music, Rock n Roll music, Country music, Big Band music, and other type of music. I have even danced them at Gasthof/Mario's Keller Bar.

The classes will be 4 Thursdays
3/22/12,
3/29/12, 4/5/12 and 4/12/12

Check in at 6:45,
Lesson
from 7:00 to 9:00,
Practice
time 9:00 to 9:15
Optional:
Go to the Peacock bar downstairs in the same building after 9:15 to socialize (tabs on your own)


Soon after 4/12/12, we will show off by doing a field trip where we get to dance these dances.


This class is designed for singles. So, we will be rotating partners frequently to make sure that nobody is without a partner for long. You get to meet and dance with most everybody of opposite gender in the group.


Couples and partnered people are more than encouraged to join us. They can start/end with their partners, but change partners in-between.


(This is a multi-group activity. So, people from other groups will join us.)
