Air Steps (Aerials), Floorials, Lifts, Drops Workshop!

Swing Toronto presents a workshop in Floorials, Air Steps, Lifts & Drops! Saturday October 12, 1pm to 3:30 pm, St Barnabas Upper Hall. Teachers: Simon Threlkeld & Sawako Ono Register here: https://swingtoronto.com/workshops/#st-dlastw12oct2024n This is some of the best and most fun stuff in dancing, or at least we think so. In a floorial ("floor aerial") one of the partners, usually the follower, slides on the the floor in a non-vertical non-standing position before returning to standing. For this workshop you need to be athletic. You also need to bring your own dance partner (because unlike all other partner dance workshops we offer, there is no partner rotation in this kind of workshop). The lead needs to be able to easily carry the follower. Already being able to do Lindy Hop or another partner dance is recommended. This workshop has a Lindy Hop and Swing Dance orientation, but some of what is taught is also suitable for other partner dancing. Partner dancing has a third dimension, up and down, from the floor to up in the air. We might go a bit past the stated end time. This workshop will not be a repeat of the things we did in our Saturday April, 2024 workshop. It will be entirely different.
