Waltz lessons and dancing

Our next waltz will be Saturday, November 9, 2019, at 7:30 p.m. in the Hulsizer Room of Ashdown House at MIT.

From 7:30 to 8:30, Sara will teach a lesson on role-switching in cross-step waltz, starting with the cross-step waltz basic. No experience is required -- this is intended both for beginners and for those who want to learn the other role (and how to switch roles during the dance!).

From 8:30 to 10:15, we will have our usual open dancing time with music of various styles and tempos, including waltz, polka, schottische, lindy hop swing, west coast swing, fusion, blues, bachata, and salsa. Send us any song requests!

Then, at 10:15, we will have a movie night with room for dancing! The plan is to play a movie with a danceable soundtrack and encourage people to dance during danceable parts of the movie. Submit movie suggestions on this form!
