Mostly Waltz for Boston welcomes Seattle’s Ari Levitt for three waltz workshops. These workshops are designed for dancers familiar with the basics who are looking for something more!

  • 2 pm Registration
  • 2:15-3:15 Unique Waltz Combinations that Slide & Glide -- A fun combination of unique moves that all start from a twinkle and slide into open position. Perfect for both beginning waltzers, and for intermediate level dancers who want to add some graceful new moves to their repertoire. (beg/int)
  • 3:20-4:20 Waltzing the Blues -- Some of the best blues music is in waltz rhythm. This is a terrific introduction to the world of blues waltz, focusing on blues-waltz musicality and syncopated rhythm steps that are a hallmark of this unique dance styling. Ari taught this class to rave reviews at this year’s Denver Fusion Exchange! (beg/int)
  • 4:25-5:30 Fun Hidden Hand Change Combos and More -- Learn some of Ari’s original, fun, new waltz variations to add to your dance repertoire. These moves are easy to lead and follow, and will add a whole new level of pleasure and delight to your dance! (int - familiarity with right or left turning waltz)
