6-Beat Swingin'

()

Hi amazing Greenwich team!

We had another great beginners class wrapping up the tandem charleston pieces we've been working on for the past few weeks! Some new faces which was great to see, and they were all able to pick up the moves we threw at you which was incredible. We put you through corridors, freezes and the statue, which everybody was really pulling together by the end of the class, top work!

Here's the video to keep you practising: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsWsZzKJ9_o

Then the intermediates kept on pushing the boundaries of their 8 beat Lindy. We gave you the texas tommy, and even an extended texas tommy because you nailed it so quickly! It was also a student driven class with you guys requesting some transition moves (we love requests!) and then working hard on those swivels and finishing the class with almost 10 minutes fantastic practise social dancing. It's great to see all the pieces falling into place and everyone having such a good time! There's no reason for any of you to be scared of the social floor any longer!

Thanks very much as always everyone! Next week we're going to be working more on the 8 beat Lindy for the intermediates, but we'll be starting some brand new 6 beat swing with the beginners, it will be a great week to start, so spread the word!
