At 7:30 p.m. before the dance, Ellie and Ken will teach a
redowa waltz lesson. Redowa is a vintage form of waltz too
infrequently danced in the social scene. The exciting
variation we will teach travels around the dance floor at
much higher speeds than regular or Viennese waltz.

The lesson will be followed by our normal swing dance. We
will return to swing lessons next week.

July 21st: 1st Set Ted Simpson
2nd Set Amy Kucharik
