West Coast Swing Evolution
Advance beyond Fundamentals with an intermediate West Coast Swing class at The Beer Hog - Madison. After a practice session, instruction focuses on technique, partnership skills, connection, and musicality. Participants are expected to be comfortable dancing West Coast Swing basics to music before attending. The curriculum follows a progressive three month rotation that steadily develops your dancing. The first month centers on creating clear leader and follower connection and responsiveness. The second month adds personal styling while keeping the partnership smooth. The third month explores the differences between linear and rotational movement to build control and dynamic expression.
