Solo Jazz: learn the Doin' the Jive routine at Monday Night Swing
This event is part of a series.
About this Event
April's parallel class will be all about solo jazz! Solo jazz is a great way to add more rhythms and musicality to your partner dancing.
Julia will be introducing you to lots of classic jazz moves by teaching the Doin' the Jive routine. It may take us two weeks to get through all the moves, and then we can use the last two weeks for practice. Plan on attending the whole month if you can!
You can get preview by watching the routine on Youtube: https://youtu.be/e_65x30fyeM?si=Blv8evhCz489yGTu

This class is open to anyone who wants to learn more solo jazz!
There will also be an opportunity to perform Doin' the Jive at the Redwood Raks spring dance showcase on May 9th. Performance participation is optional but encouraged!
If you prefer to learn partner swing dancing, we recommend attending our beginner class.
Everyone is welcome for social dancing after class!
