  DanceSport Dupont at Church of the Pilgrims, Dupont Circle

  Taught by Lily Matini and David Lee
  Contact [email protected] and [email protected]
  Thursday nights, September 12-October 31 (8 weeks)
  8-9
  $140/person
  

  This intermediate session will focus on Collegiate Shag, one of the swing-adjacent dances that arose in the 1920s and ’30s and enjoyed a resurgence in the Great Lindy Hop Revival of 1998. You’ll learn the six-count Shag basic pattern in both open and closed position, how to vary the six-count rhythm, and many footwork variations. Lily and David will stress the lead-and-follow mechanism of the unique rhythms of Shag; the momentum of Shag turns; and how momentum is generated so you can incorporate all the moves you know from Lindy Hop and other dances into Shag, and some of the classic Shag patterns as well. This class is suitable for all levels, everyone from brand-new dancers to experienced Lindy Hoppers who want to expand their vocabulary.

  DanceSport Dupont at Church of the Pilgrims, 2201 P Street, NW, Washington, DC 20037
  Note: Facing the front entrance of the church, take the walkway to the left side of the building and down the stairway leading to DanceSport Dupont in the basement social hall.
