About this Event

Want to feel more comfortable and creative when dancing to faster music? This workshop is for you! Being able to do chilled out Charleston is great for connection and you can really build on it with your own personality and style. In this workshop we'll go in depth on Charleston technique and some of the classic moves, giving ideas for how you can be more playful at those mid-tempo speeds. Then we'll ramp up to the faster music and get you used to making decisions and responding to your partner when the music gets a bit wild! It’s aimed at anyone who’s been doing Lindy for a while and wants to broaden your options for different tempos. It’s also suitable for regular social dancers who want to nerd out on the finer points of partner dancing and go hard on your learning! The teachers: With 28 years of dancing and 21 years of teaching experience between them, Ellen & Rob love sharing this dance with anyone who enjoys being on the floor. As regular social dancers in the Edinburgh scene - and choreographers who put a bit of Charleston into everything they can - they want to spread the love and appreciation as wide as they can. The workshop is also followed by Edinbop's Southside Stomp social, so get your tickets for that too and show off your new Charleston skills! We can't wait to see y'all there :)) WHAT: Intermediate+ Charleston Workshop WHEN: 10th February, 2-5pm WHERE: Quaker Studio, Pleasance HOW MUCH: £30 / £24 concessions / £12.50 EUSDS members - includes social dance with live music BOOK HERE: https://edinbop.dancecloud.com/dance/35218
