Swing On This.....With Harold Baker

Exciting News As Promised. Harold is one of the newest teachers to the UK scene have founded his company, Affinity Swing in Bath in the summer of this year. An Army Officer in his day job, Harold uses his training in military instructional techniques to steer away from the traditional dance teacher approach. Instead, he encourages students to explore exercises at their own pace, allowing for more time for guided practice in the sessions. Harold competes and travels to many events and local classes in Asia, Europe, and the US, so his syllabus is always fresh! Harold is joining us at our always exciting and fun Serene Swing event on the 8th of October to teach a 4 hour workshop; The workshop will be aimed at those who have no experience in West Coast Swing. Harold will rotate in class, dancing with all the lead and follows, allowing him to differentiate according to experience in the room. If you attend with the intention of refreshing your basics or would like to try Harold’s new approach to the dance, this is also the class for you. When Harold began teaching, the overriding feedback from students was that they wanted to learn the connection a feel of the dance that Harold has in his movement. His three-hour course centers around this concept and will make for a fun and challenging afternoon! 1600-1655: Momentum Examined: The four basic patterns. 10-minute break and time for additional questions 1705-1800: The Most Versatile Position: Closed hold. 10-minute break and time for additional questions 1810-1900: Let’s Get Technical: Walking and Anchoring.
