Saturday February 18
1:00 – 4:00pm at Chelsea Studios
151 West 26th, Studio 601
Join us for a Lindy Hop Intensive with Bobby White and Gaby Cook. Over two 90-minute workshops, we’ll present new approaches to social dance for the experienced Lindy Hopper.
ADVANCED SOCIAL DANCING
1:00 – 2:30PM
In the first half of the workshop, Bobby and Gaby will teach you the skills other teachers rarely touch upon in classes: the intricate skills of social dancing. Dancers will learn the specifics of the “conversation,” making the dance successful, and taking risks, not to mention understanding their roles as leaders and followers in new and inspiring light.
HARD, BUT FUN!
2:30 – 4:00PM
After an intensive dancing workshop meal, enjoy a desert of pure, unadulterated, cool moves. Gaby and Bobby will choose moves that are not only challenging to the leaders and followers of the class, but also adaptable to the music, so that dancers can get lots of mileage out of them.
PRICING
$30 per 90-min workshop
$55 for both workshop
