Charleston is the OG swing dance, and it melds seamlessly with dances like lindy hop that developed later. This exciting, energetic dance is quick to pick up and enjoy, but also has many variations to explore. Each workshop will begin with the same introduction to the basic Charleston footwork and connection, but then will explore a different aspect of this dance. Come back again and again to collect all of the different variations!

Cha CHa chá for beginners
Beginning+
Instructors: Sarah
SUN 5/3 1:00-3:00p
$40 per student
For Salsa dancers who want to expand their knowledge of complimentary dances, or lovers of Latin Boogaloo, Cha Cha Chá, musicality in dance, and having the dance floor to themselves, this workshop is for you.
In 2 short hours you will be able to take your beginning + intermediate Salsa skills (or no dance experience at all!), and transform your technique into this dance classic that is loved, but needing a serious comeback.
Come find out why it is Sarah's favorite, and why the movement to bring it back on deck is beginning to boil. Cha cha is versatile, playful, flexible, and the perfect dance for those who love music and musicality.
We will be dancing to some classic Tito Puente tunes, but also a healthy dose of Latin Boogaloo/Bugalú!
Partner recommended but not required. Basic Salsa or Cha Cha experience a plus, but not required.
