Mercury Retros Reboot! Connection Confections 2.0: A Recipe for Play-Based Dance! FALL 2026

You’re in for a treat! Get ready for Connection Confections 2.0 (for both first-timers and 1.0 graduates)! We’ve crafted an experience to explore Lindy Hop connection together, where we nerd out and improve our dancing through exercises, games, prompts, rhythms, small choreographies, and social dance. This session is about improving our dancing, our playfulness, our creativity, and our musicality. With 10 sessions and 20 hours of time together, our hope is to dig-in even further into the mechanics of partnering with open-ended patterns and a lot of dancing! The ultimate goal is organically improvisational dancing, aka, to have our connection and on-the-dance-floor communication looking and feeling better than ever. Join us! Pre-req: You should be able to comfortably execute a swing out to a medium tempo song (150bpm), know basic 6ct and 8ct patterns, and are comfortable learning some easy tricks and lifts. Level: Intermediate + The first practice will be Thursday, September 10th, 2026 and will run for 10 sessions! Since this is a team experience, there are no drop-ins for individual classes. Also, please note the dates are not concurrent, as there will be a Thursday off before Halloween. The dates are: THURSDAYS, Sept 10th-Oct 22nd and Nov 5-19th. The Mercury Retros are an open team, meaning anyone can join, no audition required. No partner required either. Bring one if you’d like, though we will all dance with each other at practices. Your instructors are Ceth and Beth! NO STREET SHOES allowed at MOVE! studio. Also, NO FOOD OR DRINK other than water! Please bring a clean pair of dance shoes to change into, along with your water bottles. Wear clothes you feel comfortable moving and stretching in. Any questions? write us at [email protected]
