About this Event

Want to improve your dancing? Are you ready to learn all the cool things and social dance like boss? Weekly practicas are officially going to be every Thursday, 7-9 pm! (May end early for the 9:20 special). This is the place for intermediate and advanced dancers to work on improving their dance abilities! Anyone who has finished SwingCal's B1 track, or has danced for at least 6 months is also highly encouraged to come! The material may seem hard or intimidating, but that's only part of the process of growing as a dancer! Don't be afraid, practica is a collaborative environment for improving yourself by collaborating with the friendly and loving dancers of Berkeley! Come to the first *official* practica of the semester! We'll be starting with a practica focusing on spins / turns! How to turn multiple times, distinguishing moving vs. stationary turns, learning about surprise turns, distinguishing fast vs. slow turns, and ways to end a turn. (We'll probably revisit and expand on the topic over multiple practicas throughout the semester). Can't make Thursdays 7-9pm? Sorry, this time worked for the most amount of people. However, practicas are also after SwingCal, 8:00-8:30 every week, and feel free to reach out; many people are down to practice things at Lindy on Sproul or meet up during random times of the week!
