... Additional information...

West Coast Swing Level II Prerequisites: Level 2 West Coast Swing students should be familiar with the basic sugar push, left side pass, underarm turn, and basic whip.

Drop-ins are welcome every week, but please understand, those taking the full series will have more knowledge by week 3 than those dropping in for the first time. A brief review will be offered every week, but it is highly recommended to sign up for the full  5-week series to ensure the best experience.

What if I don't know my basics? If you are interested in joining the West Coast Swing level 2 classes, but don't know your basics yet, please attend the Intro to West Coast Swing 5-Week series at least twice prior to jumping into level 2. Alternatively, you may request instructor approval. We will have a brief 5-minute “audition” prior to every level 2 class to ensure everyone knows their basics. 

Private Lessons: Ray offers an Intro Package of 2 Private Lessons for $129, which can help catch you up to speed for level 2 classes or clarify dance technique in general. Lessons are offered in the styles of Salsa, Bachata, or West Coast Swing. You may take the lessons solo or with a partner. Email rdhdance@gmail.com

Volunteer Opportunities: Last but not least, Ray offers a Dance Volunteer program for those interested in taking the series for FREE. There are no prerequisites to join the program, just an interest in learning to dance and availability to attend at least 4 weeks of the 5 week series. Volunteers may be asked to help with check-in during the first 5 minutes of each class time. Space is limited to 5 volunteers per series. Email: rdhdance@gmail.com
