UPCOMING CLASS SERIES
Held on TUESDAY NIGHTS OR SATURDAY AFTERNOONS
​
This upcoming series ​​focuses on super popular intermediate dances, taught at an improver level (beginner plus) pace.
These dances are too complex to learn on the fly on the dance floor -- So this series encourages dancers to push themselves to learn harder sequences with the support of a passionate and caring instructor, giving space and time to step you through it. Come to class to learn these favorites and feel more confident dancing them on the floor during Giddy Up Brunch, Giddy Up HoeDowns at The Grey Eagle and with Steppin' Out AVL at Banks Ave Bar.
