Learn to Clog (teen - adult)
October 6, 13, 20, 27, November 3, 10, 17, December 1 ~ 7:45 - 9:00PM (8 classes)
Instructors: Peggy Leiby and Sarah Gowan
Learn the basics of Appalachian Clogging, percussive dancing to old time music. A country cousin to tap dance, though rhythmically quite different, it is a uniquely American dance form that emerged from a melting pot of influences Celtic, African and Cherokee. Three good reasons to clog: You become the rhythm section on the dance floor, you can't help but smile while dancing, and its great exercise. Hard soled shoes that slide or low-heeled tap shoes are recommended. We will often separate into two groups to accommodate different experience levels.
Wednesdays, 6:45 - 7:45 pm Cost: $10 per class (or $70 paid in advance)
8 classes; students may drop in anytime
For more info and a registration form see www.fiddlekicks.com or call Peggy Leiby at 215-643-4397.
Level 1: Waltz Basics - Tips & Technique (teen - adult)
October 13, 20, 27 ~ 7:45 - 9:00PM (3 classes)
Instructors: Peggy Leiby and Ret Turner
Waltz is the beautiful dance that never goes out of style. We'll cover the basics of footwork, partnering, leading and following; understanding the structure and rhythm of waltz music. Instruction is based on the traditional style waltz. We estimate that half the dancers on the floor, even some who have been waltzing for years, will benefit from basic technique instruction. The course is also suitable for those who know the box-step waltz, but want to learn this versatile and popular style.
Partners not required
Registration will be reasonably gender balanced For more info and registration form see www.mostlywaltz.com/mwlessons.html or call Ret Turner or Peggy Leiby at 215-643-4397.
