Usually, we dance more in the style of Dean Raftery. But another well-known ‘old-timer’ is Ray Cunningham. He danced slightly differently to slow jazz music. His style feels different, slightly more angular. In this track, we’ll explore Laminu and learn how to mix it in your Deans Slow Bal. If you like Slow Bal, it is great to be able to dance this dance style within slow jazz! Leveldiscription Slow Bal: Shuffle You have already learned the Slow Bal basic and now you're hungry for more! This workshop track is designed for all dancers who have done some slow swing dancing before, for example in a Slow Bal taster class, and want to expand on their repertoire. You will be taught some signature moves and variations, but there will also be lots of focus on how to fill up the music with your movements. Because once you feel the Slow Bal flow, it's like dancing in the clouds! Sway You are an experienced dancer and you are really comfortable with your Slow Bal basics and have some signature moves. You're starting to feel really confident in dancing to slow jazz music, but you are in search of more inspirations and ways to play, both with the music and with your partner. This track is about really dancing to slow jazz music. It's about connection in many different ways. It's about bringing your Slow Bal skills to the next level, so any slow dance feels like melting into your partner, the floor and the music. What bliss!
