At 7:30 p.m. before the dance, Elizabeth and Davis will teach the
final class of the IAP series: More Blues, picking up where they left
off two weeks ago. You may attend this class even if you have not
attended the previous classes. The class will start at 7:30 sharp, so
PLEASE BE ON TIME!

This coming Monday, February 5, at 8:15 p.m. Ken will teach a swing
dance lesson at Fenway House. This event is part of ILG Rush, so if
you are an MIT student, you may also come over to check out the house
to consider living at Fenway House. Fenway House is located at
34 The Fenway, Boston and is the 3rd stop on Boston East SafeRide.

Next Wednesday (February 7), Orin will start a two-week beginner East
Coast swing series.

Would anyone like to teach after Orin's class? We would be
particularly interested in someone teach a class or two on Lindy Hop
(though you are welcome to teach anything you want).

On Friday, February 9, Ashdown House will hold a big dance party (you
may remember Dance Fusion from years past), and is seeking a swing
dance DJ and a lesson instructor. If you are interested in either of
these tasks, please contact Sian Kleindienst <skleindi@MIT.EDU>. This
is a (modestly) paid gig.

At 7:30 p.m. before the dance, Elizabeth and Davis will
teach the third class of their 4-part IAP lesson series.
This week they will teach Swing Dancing Fast (rapid tempo).

No previous swing experience or partner required. You may
attend this lesson even if you did not attend previous
weeks' lessons.

All you need is a willingness to explore tempo extremes. Elizabeth
and Davis will help you build proper dance form, great styling, and
fun moves!

Experienced dancers will benefit just as much as beginners, if not
more, because they will be able to access specifically targeted
instruction on technique while beginners practice the basics.

PLEASE try your best to come on time - 7:30. The partner-dance
portion of class will utilize material directly from the warmups.
You'll get the most out of class if you attend the whole thing.

NEXT WEEK (January 31): The lesson and dance will be in
Walker Memorial (MIT Building 50).

Would anyone like to teach in February? We currently have
no lessons scheduled.
