Gift Ideas ! One hour private dance lessons for 1 or 2 persons for an upcoming Social Dance occasion or Wedding. Many
people feel they are not ready for classes, a private lesson is a great
way to circumvent busy schedules and shyness. This also a great gift, or way to prepare for an upcoming event or WEDDING! It
is becoming very fashionable to give dance lessons to the wedding party
and/or engaged couple as a fun way of preparing together for their
special occasion. Foxtrot,
Waltz, Swing or Tango social dance lessons all available. Learn basic
steps, styling, lead/follow connection, dips and turns, great entrances
and exits to the dance floor! All you need to feel comfortable and
confident for that first dance or social event. Privates: $60 hour or 4 sessions for one or two persons
DVD's now available!
I have over 10 years of video tapes documenting :
Frankie Manning: Lindy Hop & The Big Apple
Betty Wood: The Big Apple, Shag, Boogie Steps
Chazz Young: Swingcopations, soft shoe for Swing Dancers.
This footage includes their stories, performances and 4 days of workshop classes !
There is very little footage of Betty and her stories, styling and steps.
These videos have very special and historically precious matterial.
A fantastic gift idea, and essential for learning the original and authentic steps & styling!
Videos are $40 per video, plus shipping, a great value for a 4 day workshop plus extras!
A great gift idea to give or receive !
