Big Apple with Ali

Learn “The Big Apple”!

The Big Apple routine is one of the most iconic authentic jazz
routines in the swing world, and one that every swing dancer should
eventually learn. The version danced today was choreographed for the
cinema by the legendary Frankie Manning, and can be seen in a famous
clip from the 1939 movie “Keep Punching”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfgKMfexdPQ

In this course, Ali will give you a little background on the dance, and
teach you this crazy and captivating routine during four classes; it is
going to be sweaty, intense, and fun! The course has no particular
prerequisites or level requirement. However, it is recommended that you
are at least familiar with the most basic jazz steps and preferrably have
some prior experience learning choreography. But don’t hesitate to
try – it’ll be crazy and fun!

TIME: Tuesdays 19.30-21.00 (28/5-18/6)
LOCATION: Underverket, Hasselgatan 8

Balboa ELEF and feedback course part 2: 29/5-12/6

ELEF = Everybody Leads and Everybody Follows.
To master one role in a dance you also need to understand the other and the best way to do that is to experience it for your self. In addition there will be twice as many you can dance with on the social dance floor.

In this course you will learn to both lead and to follow!
Everyone dances with everyone!

FEEDBACK
In this course you will also be asked to give and receive feedback from both teachers and course mates.

COURSE CONTENT
We will focus on making the dance flow and really feel great.

INSTRUKTÖRERNA HAR ORDET
“Här är möjligheten till ytterligare en ELEF kurs i balboa. Tanken är att fokusera på connection och få förståelse för båda rollerna. Man skall vara beredd på att ge/få feedback, så vi ser helst man gått kurser tidigare i någon dans på medelnivå” Sonja Jönsson initjativtagare och instruktör på kursen tillsammans med Max Christiansson

Balboa på Globen

Balboa er en swingdans fra 1920erne, som man danser to og to, hvor en leder og en anden følger. Man danser til swing musik, og fordi trinene er små, kan man danse hurtigt og på lidt plads. Man behøver ikke meget mere end en glat trappesten. Det er sjovt men også elegant. Kom og prøv fra kl 19:30, og dans med os bagefter fra kl 20:30..
