West Coast DANCE – Swing Dance Club Hawaii - Membership not required!
INCLUDED with $5 admission, Joe Shorba will teach a 30-minute West Coast Swing class for beginners 6:15-6:45 pm, followed by OPEN DANCING from 6:45-8:15 pm, to music by Jack Crouse. We must exit the Palladium, with all chairs put away, by 8:30 pm.
PRIOR to the class for beginners, Joe Shorba will teach an INTERMEDIATE West Coast Swing lesson 5:45-6:15 pm for an additional $5. Intermediate dancers are encouraged to stay on the floor and help with the beginning class.
Important NOTE from an interim SDCH volunteer, Heather Huel:
"We have had some interest regarding Board membership. One of our newer dancers, Ryan Sun, has stepped up to lead the efforts of promoting the club, finding new board members, and reorganizing the club after its hiatus due to Covid. We could still use more help, and still have Board positions that need to be filled, so if you have any questions or would like to help us figure out our plan going forward, please let us know. All questions, comments and suggestions are welcome."
