Description
We want to teach you how to dance so you can experience the great feelings that come along with it!
Why would you like to learn this dance compared to any other dance forms out there?
Because it is probably the most versatile partner dance out there - you can dance it to any type of music. Whereas other dances (salsa, bachata, tango etc) are restricted to only a certain type of music, West Coast Swing (WCS) can be danced to a variety of music. So whichever music you prefer we are confident that you can dance WCS to it. For example you can dance to pop, funk, disco music and R&B. You can dance to pretty much any music and most of the songs you hear on the radio.
We want you to be able to dance as fast as possible!
After each section of patterns we teach you, you will learn all the patterns in a combination. This makes sure that you will be dancing right away and so that you have something to show off immediately.
Even after completing the first section of patterns and practicing the combination you will have enough content to dance at one event.
We are Rolf and Karin - national champions in the partner dance West Coast Swing. Together we have taught thousands of dance lessons - so you are in good hands for this course.
We are ready to teach you when you are :)
