Cross-Step Waltz Workshops with Susan de Guardiola

A special afternoon of cross-step waltz workshops with Susan de Guardiola, dance teacher and historian from New Haven, CT. Cross-step waltz is perfect for those slower tunes -- it's easy to learn, yet endlessly innovative and creative for experienced dancers, with liberal borrowing from swing, tango, salsa and blues.

2:00 - 2:55  Cross-step Waltz Basics
3:00 - 4:10  New Cross-step Waltz Variations
4:15 - 5:30  Open dancing dj'ed by Susan

$12 admission/ $6 for young adults

The first workshop is ideal for those new to cross-step or looking for a refresher. The second workshop will focus on new variations and is intended for those with some prior experience or who attended the first workshop. 

No partner is necessary. We will change partners frequently during the workshops. 

Light refreshments will be served. 

To protect the wooden floor and to make turning easier, please change from street shoes to clean shoes, ideally leather-soled, before dancing.

Presented by the Folk Arts Center of New England and Mostly Waltz for Boston.  http://facone.org/programs/mostlywaltz
