Westies Out West WCS Classes

Join us for West Coast Swing dance class on the West Side in Yarraville! 7pm - LEVEL 1 Perfect for new dancers, or dancers wishing to cement their basics and techniques. We have a monthly rotation of the basic steps: Left Side Pass, Right Side Underarm Pass, Push Break, Whip, and Starter Step. 8pm - LEVEL 2 You need to be comfortable with the Steps and Techniques from Level 1. We take our dancing up a notch and learn how to start moving our groove in our own unique way, and find our own individual flavour. Steps are variations and extensions of basics, and get us exploring dance possibilities and conversations. OUR CLASSES ARE RUN WITH THOSE NEW TO WEST COAST SWING IN MIND. START IN LEVEL 1, AND IF YOU FEEL UP TO IT STAY FOR LEVEL 2... WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE YOUR BRAIN IS FULL UP, JUST CHILL OUT AND TAKE A SEAT, OR KEEP WORKING ON WHAT YOU'VE TAKEN IN FOR THE NIGHT. WCS is danced to current music you hear today from such artists as Ed Sheeran, Jason Darulo, Troye Sivan, Jordy... in fact pretty much any music that goes "boom-chick-boom-chick". The fun doesn't stop there though, as WCS can be danced to music from the 20s, 30s, 40s all the way to the present, and even to swung beats such as Blues! You can incorporate movements from other dance styles into the framework of WCS, and really express yourself with a touch of Salsa, Tango, Hip Hop and more :-) These classes are perfect for beginners wanting to try out something new and learn the basics, as well as for more experienced dancers wanting to cement their basics and add layers of technique. A basic is only Basic until you add Technique, Style and Flair!
