Chicago Stepping

Let start with the least amount of dance steps and methods that will get you dancing… right away!

This Saturday August 10, 2024 Dance practice 3pm- 5pm. Location: Le Parker Meriden (look for Thompson entrance. The privately owned public space) 118 West 57 st NYC btw 6av-7ave. Note It a quiet practice which requires a headphone to hear the music. I carry a few extras but it's easier if you purchase personal headphones $40... you can used them with other devices by buying a male to male cord. Text or email me(quietdance@protonmail.com) so that I bring enough phones. Thanks; Music, followers, leaders. Practice with both the count and the music. The rhythm are on the 1,4, and 7. Note work on extended right and box left.


Here is what I learned from a recent class. 1)Music comes first. Listen to the music. You will eventually start dancing without counting. Note the count is a tool used to learn many genre of dance but the bottom line is dance to the music. second: The follower is the next thing of importance. Leaders should adjust to the level of the dancer. They may not know the move you are attempting to get them to do. Next, Is the leader listen to the music and adjust dance to reflect the music. Note you might see some leaders putting some followers through a bunch of turns... they are doing it just to help the followers practice their turns.
