Re: Swingle Jingle swing dance, Walker, lesson 7:30

Hi all,

I got super delayed so will be late with bringing the
equipment to Walker. David will probably be able to start
the lesson (without music) without me.

I'll probably be there with the equipment around 8-8:15.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Teach MIT swing lesson on Wednesday?

Would anyone like to teach a lesson before the dance this

Swing Dancing, Lobby 13, lesson 7:30

We are in Building 13 this week, not the student center.

* Wednesday, November 16, Lesson 7:30 Dancing 9-11:30 p.m.
* Lobby 13 (Building 13, 1st floor) Map:

* Free, Beginners welcome, No partner necessary
* DJ Ted Simpson

At 7:30 before the dance, Ken will teach a beginner swing
lesson. (David, previously scheduled, became unable teach
this week. He will return 11/30.)

If you are available before the lesson to help me move our
sound system to Lobby 13, please meet me at student center
room 437 (our storage room) at 6:45 pm. Thanks!

Due to construction in the area (MIT.nano), Building 13 is a
little bit harder to get to for visitors than before
construction started. Easiest is from Massachusetts Ave,
from whence you can walk an indoor route through the western
half of the Infinite Corridor, or walk underneath the
breezeway between Building 9 and Building 33. Pedestrian
access from Vassar St. is probably possible through the gap
between Buildings 35 and 37. From points east, e.g.,
Kendall T stop, your best bet is the indoor route through
the eastern half the Infinite Corridor. Here is a MIT
campus map:
http://whereis.mit.edu/?go=13

Locations for the next few weeks:

11/16 Lobby 13, DJ Ted Simpson
11/23 No dance (Thanksgiving eve)

* Bread and Bones, a fusion social dance and concert,
featuring Amy Kucharik and Friends with Benefits
* Friday, May 13, 2016
* La Sala de Puerto Rico, MIT Student Center 2nd floor
* Fusion dance lesson 7:30 p.m.
* Music and social dancing 8:30 p.m. - 12:30 a.m.
* Join the Facebook event: http://bit.ly/22wJ8Ua

Join us for an incredible night of music and Fusion dancing
featuring Boston's own Amy Kucharik & Friends with Benefits
returning for a second year. In addition to excellent live
music, we are pleased to announce there will be fusion music
sets by DJ Flynnrider!

At 7:30, Kelly and Ken will teach a fusion dance lesson.

Who is Amy and Friends With Benefits?

Amy Kucharik, a talented singer/songwriter from Somerville
and familiar face around the Boston dance scene, is a
dancer's dream musician. On her ukulele, she has immense
musical range and her influences range from ragtime blues,
country, and folk, to reggae, funk and infectious, danceable
swing. Her band, Friends With Benefits, will have you on
your feet in no time. The songs are catchy and sexy, and we
invite you to listen closely to Amy's witty (sometimes
dark-humored) lyrics.

Check out Amy's latest album, "Cunning Folk" at
amykucharik.com.

Why "Bread and Bones"?

It's the title of a brilliant Amy Kucharik song off her EP,
"Dance Crush Blues." Take a listen and you'll know why we
chose it for our theme.

Tell me more about Fusion dancing!

Fusion is partner dancing that freely combines multiple
dance aesthetics and musical genres. It means time to bust
out those Tango, Ballroom, Salsa, Swing, Blues, etc. moves.
Partner connection and musicality are key. Want to learn
more? Check out the complimentary lesson taught by Kelly and
Ken at 7:30 p.m.!

What if I am not a dancer?

No problem! This event is open to everyone (dancer and
non-dancers alike)! We will have part of the room set up
with chairs so you can enjoy the live music.

Admission

MIT Students: $3 (Special thanks to the MIT Large Event
Fund for subsidizing MIT student admission.)
MIT Community: $5
Other students with valid ID: $5
General public: $10

All tickets are at the door; no advance purchase. Admission
includes complimentary dance lesson, food, and non-alcoholic
beverages.

Swing Dancing, Lobdell, Lesson 7:30

* MIT Lindy Hop Society Wednesday Swing Dance
* Wednesday, March 23, Lesson 7:30 Dancing 9-11:30 p.m.
* Lobdell Dining Room, Student Center 2nd floor
* Free, Beginners welcome, No partner necessary
* DJ Ted Simpson

This week, Eveleen and Vinay will teach a 6 count class,
likely with tuck turns and some other moves.

No link for practising steps this week, keep working on the
stuff in the other videos if you want something to practice,
or come see Vinay just after class about how to set up a
practice for yourself. Here's a link with a bunch of info if
you're starting out dancing instead (note, the philly lindy
blog seems to be defunct at the moment):

All dances will be in Lobdell this month.
DJ schedule for March:
3/23 Ted Simpson
3/30 Dustin Spicuzza and Eric Reesman

Would anyone like to teach a lesson or lessons in April or
beyond?

If you are an MIT student and would like to help out with
the club, let me know. I am particularly looking for
occasional help setting up the sound system at the start of
the lesson.

Friday, May 13: Bread and Bones, our second annual Fusion
Dance!
