"NEW" L-1 & L-2 CONTINUED DANCE DEVELOPMENT & PRACTICE SESSION
L-1 & L-2 Dancers choice.
In this class we offer the option for L-1 and above dancers to further work on the development of their Essential Basics. This allows for a full 1.5 hours of learning and development time which we feel is very helpful in accelerating growth in the dance.
We also offer an L-2 level development option for those that wish to work on the material taught in the730pm L-2 class as well as new material and concepts, Also, for those that wish to dip their dance toes into the next Level waters in a smaller group environment, this is the place. Deeper dives into WCS basic concepts, foundational movements and drill work will be offered.
*Classes will consist of instructional info, Q&A, music dance practice, and personal critiques and adjustments.
