Country Western Intensive, East Coast Swing

Group Classes for September

Fridays, September 4th — October 9th; 6:30 PM – 7:30 PMCowboy Boots
Country Western Intensive (Beginning/Intermediate)
at the Ankeny Street Studio; 975 SE Sandy Blvd., PDX

We’ll start each class with a quick and easy line dance to warm up. Then our goal is to go through as many patterns in Country 2-Step as we can; covering beginning through intermediate patterns. Remember the Ankeny Street Studio has good AC so wear layers that you can remove as you warm up! This will be a great refresher course for anyone feeling a little rusty and you’ll come away from the class with more confidence and additional patterns to boot.
— $60 for six classes (per person)
— $15 for a drop in (per person)
