ALHC
classes will be taught on three different levels.
There are many different steps and styles that will be taught at each
level. No classes will be repeated. You may use the following guideline
when determining your participation level:
Beginning: Must be comfortable with triple steps and familiar with
the basics: Swingout or Whip, Circle, side by side
Charleston.
Intermediate: Besides knowing the basics you must have a solid
lead/follow and be comfortable dancing to a variety of
tempos.
Advanced: You flow easily between
slow songs and fast songs, styling and syncopating. You pick up new steps
quickly and you’re ready for syncopations, breaks, dips and tricks at a
variety of tempos.
This
year’s event will be held at the Sheraton in Stamford, Connecticut.
It is conveniently located in downtown Stamford between the Merritt
Parkway, 1-95 and the Cross County Expressway. It is only 30 miles north
of Manhattan at 2701 Summer Street. For reservations call Stamford’s
