ft. Viper’s Cloud for a “Fast Feet” Night!
We are very happy to have Viper’s Cloud back for more La Pompe and circumstance!
We have a “Fast Feet” (faster tempos) Saturday Night Swing about once a month – this is the one for July. Come and dance to faster tempos in the band’s 2nd and 3rd sets!
All three sets have a mix of tempos, slow, middling and fast. The songs in the 1st set will tend to be slower, and in the 2nd and 3rd sets there will be lots of faster tempo songs, as well as middling and slower tempos.
Learn Charleston and Lindy Hop in the beginner lessons. They are often danced together in the same song, and are joyful fun classic Swing Dances done around the world. Charleston is good for middling to fast tempos. The Lindy Hop lesson will be oriented to dancing Lindy Hop to faster tempos.
Do Charleston and Faster Lindy Hop, and see or do Balboa and Collegiate Shag (which are classic Swing Dances typically done to faster tempos).
