Hood River FUSION Partner Dance (for new dancers and OGs)
September 15 @ 7:00 pm
✨ FUSION PARTNER DANCE — HOOD RIVER!!! ✨
You guys… let’s dance.
Partner dancing is connection, music, movement and expression. A perfect way to get out of your head and into your body… don’t we all need that!
Come learn something new, meet good people, and get comfortable on the dance floor. No experience necessary. No partner necessary. Just come as you are. ✨
✨ September 18 !!! ✨
Teacher & class topic:🔥🔥 So excited to announce that Eric Arthur will be our visiting teacher out from Portland for this month’s Hood River Fusion!!
Eric teaches Tai Chi, Blues, Swing, Tango, Micro, & a fusion of those styles.
SEPTEMBER CLASS TOPIC…
“MICRO MESSAGING”
In this class we’ll focus on what we are saying to our partner when we lead a movement, as well as paying attention to what a led movement is saying so we can follow it. We will mirror the values of a good verbal conversation in our dancing, which is a type of non-verbal communication. Clear and focused leading matched with compassionate listening.
For anyone who wants to up-level their body awareness and skill as a lead/follow in any dance (including that one we call life) this is the class.
✨ NEW TO PARTNER DANCE?
WELCOME. We’re glad you’re here. 🫶
A few things to know:
✨ You DON’T need a partner.
We rotate partners throughout the evening, so you’ll get to dance with different people. And you’re always welcome to say yes or no to a dance.
✨ First time? You need to attend class.
The class will give you the tools you need to jump in and feel more comfortable.
✨ We’ll cover respectful, safe & easeful connection.
Because good dancing starts with clear communication.
✨ Please arrive fresh & clean! 🛀🛀
Your dance partners will appreciate you. 😌
