Did you feel that you would like to learn evan more during Little Blues Sister, vol. IV?

We have it for you!

You can look forward to amazing taster for Saturday. It will start at 8 pm rigt before the party at the venue.

And what is it going to be about, you ask?

Communication in partner dancing
Vlada (Ukraine) and Hamed (Austria) have prepared a taster for you on Saturday before the party. They will talk about followers and leaders choices in partner dance and how to interact with each other and give each other the space to bring her/his own ideas into the dance. To summarize, It is about making a conversation in partner dancing.
This class is for intermediate and higher level dancers and requires a basic knowledge of Blues dancing.
