Have you ever been to a dance, party, or wedding and watched others glide across the floor? Do you have a partner who refuses to get his or her groove on?
Midtown is offering beginner swing dance classes on Friday nights starting in October. This class is designed for newbies to introduce you to the fun world of dancing.
Dancing is now seen as an activity for the general public. We have to thank television shows such as “Dancing with the Stars” and “So You Think You Can Dance” and movies such as “Mad Hot Ballroom” and “Shall We Dance” for helping to create this media phenomenon.
Teaching these classes is Emily Copeland.
As person of diverse interests, she combines her passions and education for a unique perspective on dance, personal training, group exercise, and healthy living.
Here’s the 411 on Emily:
Midtown Swing Night is an introduction to East Coast Swing.
You’ll learn:
Each class will begin with a short warm up, review of the previous classes steps, and an introduction of at least one new pattern.
Learning to dance can be not only fun but also a great way to burn calories. One hour of moderate ballroom dancing will burn on average of 270 calories!
Mark your calendars for Friday September 30th at 5:30 – 6:30 pm for a fun, complimentary dance class. Once you try it, you will want to sign up for the October session! What better place to try something new than at Midtown amongst your friends.
Don’t know what to wear? Something comfortable. If you don’t have non-marking shoes, you can just bring a pair of socks to slip on for the class.
See you there!
