Country Dancing Essentials In March

In March, Out Dancing will offer five Friday nights of “Country Essentials.” Daniel will combine a fun warm-up of line dancing with Country 2-Step instruction. The class is open to dancers of all levels of experience. There will be new combinations for those folks who already know the 2-Step and basic instruction for those who are just starting out.

Fridays, March 1st – March 29th 6:30-7:30 PM at Ankeny Street Studio
Country Dance Essentials (Beginning/Intermediate)

Enjoy your favorite Country-Western music as we learn all the essentials for having fun at a Country Dance. Modern Country 2-Step has its roots in German country dancing from the 1800s. Today, the Country 2-Step is one of the “must know” dances to go with country and western music. Beginners will love the easy and fun basic steps. More advanced students will be pleased with the complexity of more difficult steps and routines. Line dancing is popular in so many clubs–we’ll learn a different one each Friday as we “warm up.”

$50 for five classes (per person)
$15 for a drop in (per person)
