Thomas and Alice are two of my favorite dancers. They do such a fabulous job taking basic moves and embellishing them with style to express the music.

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.  
 

Lindyfest  in Houston, TX. March 24th-27th is a HUGE event and oodles of fun. World class instruction, fantastic live bands and a whole bunch of fun competitions to watch mixed in.

Sunflower Swing in your home town. April 15-17th, the best party all year. Fabulous classes and dancing into the wee hours of the morning. Don't miss it! 

Last weekend, a gaggle of Wichita dancers drove up to Lawrence for Rock Chalk Swing. Many entered into the competitions and many won. This is a shot of just some of the winners. We had a blast taking classes and dancing to the wonderful live music. The Lawrence dancers know how to throw a great party!  


Gershwin Group Sunday










Favorite music

This week's song is a live performance by the Hot Sugar Band. I would love it if we could dance to this caliber of live, traditional jazz, locally.
