Flow and Momentum
When everything feels right, leaders and followers feel comfortable playing off each other by directing and redirecting energy and momentum. In this class, we will help you explore this flow and share a few ways to incorporate it into your dancing.
PRE-REQUISITES: At least nine consecutive months of Level 1 and Level 2 including one full year of social dance, or discuss your eligibility with instructors. Under-qualified students will be asked to transfer to Level 2 in order to strengthen their fundamentals.

Next Week: Volunteer Appreciation Party
Let’s celebrate our wonderful volunteers!
WNH couldn’t possibly be the place it is today without the huge help we’ve gotten over the years from our great volunteers. Setting up and tearing down, running the front deesk, shooting and uploading videos, tending to the food table, letting a hand with parties and decorations — the varied tasks our volunteers undertake make WNH into the friendly, smoothly-running place it is today. We want to acknowledge their efforts and we’re throwing a party just for them!
Interested in joining our volunteer pool? Yessss, you made our day! Talk to MC during the dance, or shoot us an email.
Keep it Swingin'! See you out on the dance floor!
