Having trouble with your spins? These "Spins & Turns" workshops will improve your ability to spin and turn in one day. The first part will warm you up and give you drills to practice; the second part will break down all the fundamentals of both the one-footed spin (pirouette) and the two-footed spin (chaîné); and the third part will give full application of your new technique in context of partner dancing.

6:00-9:30pm:

Spins & Turns Warmup and Drills

This segment will warm up the parts of your body that are essential for turning. Activating the neck, arms, back, abductors, calfs, and feet will be important for the success of spins and turns. 

Spins & Turns Fundamentals

This workshop will address methods & techniques for making your spins & turns easier, more comfortable and better looking. We'll start with simple methods to get you "on your leg" then we'll show you how to use your arms for centering. We'll explain and get you doing one-footed turns and two-footed turns. You'll be a better dancer after this class. This is for both leaders and followers, and for all forms of dance.
