This Month's Classes: Tranky Doo, a vintage choreographed solo line dance done around the world. Taught by Evan 6:30-7:30 Intro to Swing 7:30-8:00 Taught by a lovely variety of teachers.  There will be additional teachers substituting. Next Month's Classes: TBD Upcoming Events: January 3rd is Dance Card Sunday.  January 31st is the Birthday Jam Extra Extra! We want to hear what you think. If you have an idea let us know. Got a concern on your mind, lay it on us. We want your experience to be fun and worry free. Inspiration This group has a lot of style. To reach this level of musicality, being knowing how to dance on your own is a must. Taking a solo dance class is a sure fire way to practice different moves that you can throw into social dancing. For the whole month of January (all five Sundays), we will be learning the Tranky Doo at 6:30. Taking the 6:30 class is a good window into the classes at Sunflower Swing too. Make sure to check out our yearly party coming up in April. There are a handful of great weekend workshops within a day's drive coming up in 2016, make sure that Sunflower Swing in Wichita is on that list.  Travel Opportunities: If you're looking to meet more dancers and skyrocket your skills, there's no better way than to hop in the car and find a weekend workshop.     Kevin St. Laurent and Jo Hoffberg in Austin, TX January 22nd-24th 2016 Rock Chalk Swing has a FANTASTIC lineup of teachers.
