Sat, May 3, Blues Eclectic w/ Lesson 

7pm: All-levels Lesson with Rachel Lidskog-Lim from Dancing with Joy..
Building open at 6:45 pm.

Topic: Dancing to 6/8 Music – Flow, Feeling, and Freedom
Ever wanted to dance to a song like At Last by Etta James, but weren’t sure how? That’s 6/8 time—a rhythm full of sway, emotion, and story. It doesn’t belong to one dance style, so it becomes a canvas for your own creativity. You might feel inspired to move like in Nightclub Two Step, Blues, or Tango… or maybe something entirely new.
Tonight’s lesson will explore how to move with the music—letting the rhythm guide your breath, your steps, and your connection. No complicated choreography, just shared musicality and play. Come feel it for yourself. Link to playlist and more info .
