Country Dancing beginning level lessons with a field trip


Many people have been asking for some lessons in Country dancing. Also, in summer months, many parks and festivals will have Country bands for us to dance to.
So, in June, we are going to learn one or two Country partner dances (Country Two Step, and time permitting Country Three Step) and some popular Country line dances (Electric Slide, Cotton Eyed Joe/Sixteen Steps, etc.).
If you like to dance, please be sure to join us for these lessons even if you don't like the Country music. We will be dancing to the beat and ignoring the lyrics for most part.
Details
** The lessons will be 3 Thursdays 6/14/12, 6/21/12, and 6/28/12
** Check in at 6:45
** Lesson from 7:00 to 9:00
** Optional practice time from 9:00 to 9:10
** Optional socializing at Peacock Bar in the same building after 9:10
In the class, we will plan a group field trip for sometime after 6/28/2012. This could be a local nightclub with Country music or an outdoor event with Country music. Be sure to pass your ideas for field trip to Milind.
These lessons are 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.)
