Happy Friday everyone!

We try to bring the best Instructors to our events...
Which workshop instructors are your favorite? And for what styles?

Can't wait to hear your thoughts!! 😀

Sure would like to see a demo of Waterfall pattern in Waltz. I see the hand to Hand which starts in same Prom position but Follower does not cross back and forth Cheers

I just started taking some WCS lessons and one of the things I worked on was a 'left side spinning pass'

I wanted to see if you have a video of that and found a couple things (I'll link to below), but when I click on the video, it's just an image and doesn't provide an actual video.

Can you help w/ this when you get a minute?

Thanks!

Hey, Lance here from Bend, Oregon. In college I think I took almost all the dance classes offered (ballroom, jazz, country, east coast swing) and really liked it. So just started to taking lessons again but this time learning West Coast Swing (which I've never done before). 

I found Brian's videos on YouTube VERY helpful so excited to be a a part of the community over here :) 

Also, I came across Bloodstream by Ed Sheeran and really like dancing to this one.

Anything similar sounding that comes to mind for West Coast Swing?

Thanks!

The video "Rumba Sliding Doors" was just posted, but it is actually a waltz video, it should be moved.

Greg and Lynn Jenkins here from Alexandria, LA. It all started on a cruise ship! Seeing how much she enjoyed lessons on the ship, I came up with the ultimate birthday present for her.....dance lessons when we got home. I figured after a month of getting stepped on, she would be done, and I would still be the hero! Instead, I got hooked on dance. Sixteen years later we are still dancing. Unfortunately, we lost our instructor Randy to COVID. Thankfully we had many videos of things he taught us. We converted our game room into a dance studio and dance practice has become our exercise routine. We also host couples from our old group, "The Divas" (his name for us)  once a week to practice what he taught us. Social Dance Online has been the best we have found for further development of our dance skills. Thank you all for helping us improve our dancing. We continue to cruise and after a night or two we are..... "The Dancers".

Howdy fellow Dancers.  I really want the yearly membership, however i will start with the monthly to see how i like it. I have been taking Country Western classes and absolutely love it. Still am not the best dancer so now I am looking forward to an additional learning opportunity. 

Hello, I’m Dave. I live in Albuquerque, NM. I’m happy to say that I’ve enjoyed dance lessons for the past few months. Amongst a plethora of struggles, feet to the beat comes to mind.😅

My wife and I have just started dance lessons and we are now at the point where we are looking for dance shoes.  What are some options for sourcing dance shoes for the both of us?  Any suggestions on brand, style, etc...?  We are learning ECS, Rhumba, Foxtrot, & Tango.  My wife is very particular about her shoes as she is a nurse and stands all day so she will need to try on many, many, options before she finds the perfect fit.  Thanks!
