THIS WEEK AT
If one of your (or someone's you know) resolutions for 2019 is to learn swing dancing, we've got you covered with Resolution Swing -- two months of beginner classes for the price of approximately one and a half. Approximately, because pricing is complicated, but a deal on beginner lindy hop classes at WNH is not!
We are excited for a new program at WNH -- the Community Fund. This is a way for dancers who have a little extra money to help those who cannot afford to take classes or come to dances. Anybody can donate, and anyone can ask to be subsidized. Find out details and donate on our website.
Wed December 19
9:30 - 11:45 w/ DJ Brian

White-Out Party
The idea behind the WHITE OUT party is simple: celebrate the snow! ❄️
And since we don’t get snow outside here, we bring it inside in the form of white clothes. So, make sure to wear something WHITE for the dance, take a picture in our photo booth, and celebrate the close of 2018 with your WNH family! ⛄️ 💙
January Series Begin on the 9th
Beginners (8:15pm - 9:15pm)

It's All Swing To Me
Many beginners are surprised when they find out that Lindy Hop, and the modern swing dance floor in general, is full of different rhythms, patterns, and even dances, coexisting to the same swinging music. How do these diverse flavors help us express ourselves in jazz? What's the difference between eight-count and six-count? How do we transition well between them? And what does it mean to be "musical" anyway? Answers to all of these and others hand-picked by our instructors!
Pre-requisites: All 4 months of Beginners Track or equivalent experience. No partner required, just bring comfy shoes and your enthusiasm!
Technical (7:15pm - 8:15pm)
w/ Audrey & Paul
Stretch and Compression

Introduction to Collegiate Shag
"Shag" was a term for partnered dancing that erupted in many forms during the swing era. This particular style caught on in colleges with young dancers itching to cut a rug and fraternize co-ed style. Come to learn these energetic, moves just perfect for fast-paced jazz!
Pre-requisites: None; some partnered dance experience is preferred. No partner required; just bring your enthusiasm and comfortable clothes!
