Monday Swing - Charleston with Austin

Monday Swing is a weekly vintage swing dance practicum and social dance on Monday nights with DJ'ed music in a cozy NE PDX setting. Series Title: Talk Charleston to Me Instructor: Austin Neverman Series Description: Charleston is Lindy Hop's flirtier, faster-footed sibling — and this September we're digging in. Over the series we'll sharpen the key components that make Charleston feel good: quick, confident footwork, playful rhythm and timing, connection that holds up at speed, and the musicality to make it all feel like a conversation with the music (and your partner). Bring your energy — this one's fast, fun, and a little bit cheeky. See you on the dance floor!

We DJ music just like a regular social dance. You can come out and just dance like normal, or you can come planning to work on something: Ask for feedback, work on a move, play with variations, master a routine. >>Have a specific question? Experienced dancers and local teachers are available at practicum to help out with sticky spots. >> Balboa? Shag? Solo? Learning swingouts? Let the DJ know what you're working on if you have specific music requests! This building is not physically accessible to enter. If you have accessibility concerns, please contact PLS.
