A new fun learning experience at Wednesday Night Hop!
Are you craving one-on-one instruction, but the idea of signing up for a private lesson is too daunting? Now you can try our mini-private format, in the comfort of WNH's time and space. On most fourth (and fifth, when available) Wednesdays of the month, we'll hold mini-private sessions with various WNH instructors, both for Lindy Hop and Balboa. The mini-privates run from 10pm to 11pm, and are 15 minutes each, for $15. Sign up at the front desk.
We hope to see you for the mini-privates this week!
