Improver Swing Dance Classes (Level 2)

About this course

The course develops East Coast Swing beyond the fundamentals, introducing additional steps, passes and turn patterns. Sessions also work on leading and following, with dancers practising with different partners as the class progresses. The progressive format builds on material from Level 1 Swing classes, using a structured sequence of techniques rather than isolated lessons. East Coast Swing is taught as a six-count social dance with a triple-step rhythm.

What you'll learn

• Perform new East Coast Swing steps and passes
• Use a wider range of turn patterns
• Refine leading and following with different partners
• Apply a six-count, triple-step rhythm in social dancing
