This will be a class to elevate your ability to switch between leading and following mid dance! Technique Class: This is not a switch class, you can choose your role and stick with it. Though we do want to create space for those who have been wanting to try their non dominant role! So if you normally lead, try following or visa versa! That said, Rosemary will be working on WCS Technique to elevate your role! This class is designed to make you a better Westie! To give you the tools to grow! Students should have a command of all 6 Count Timing, Sugar Push, Sugar Tuck, Left Side Pass, Underarm Pass. We recommend taking this 12 Week Course, multiple times! Free Intro Class: No experience or partner needed! Just come in and take this free class to build a base to move up from.

BIRTHDAY People on Birthday Week:
Once per month only on Birthday Night @ Westie Groove, anyone who has a birthday that calendar month gets in for FREE! Make sure it’s Birthday Night. On Birthday Night, you can also bring your non-dancer friends to get in FREE. These are people who haven’t been to Westie Groove before.
BYOB aka Bring Your Own Beginner! On BYOB Week:
Once per month on BYOB Night, Dancers who bring their non dance friends get in for FREE! These are people who haven’t been to Westie Groove before. Not only do YOU get in for free, but they do as well!
After classes end, we are going to ask all dancers to pay it forward by coming by and dancing with our beginners. We were all there once! It's so important to support people coming up! We'll play a song and have everyone switch partners every 40 seconds or so. Helping those who are less apt to ask people to dance get some reps in with a ton of new people.
SOCIAL DANCE:
Our DJ's will take us on a different journey each week, with a variety of genres, BPMs and feels. We truly want to reframe how we interact with music. Every DJ brings their own vibe, and each is committed to playing something for everyone. We're not staying late. Our plan is to hit it hard for 3 hours with the intention of dancing our butts off. Come early! Go Hard!
........COMMUNITY FUNCTIONS........
On some weeks we'll feature a different Community Function. We're going to keep the schedule flexible as this takes shape, but please expect that we'll all be engaging in socializing, intention building and education each night. We'd love your support and energy!
JAM Night! Get in a circle and spotlight different dancers as they cut it up surrounded by our cheering community! We'll take one song in the evening to create a circle and invite anyone willing to grab a partner and hop in the middle to cut it up for 20 seconds or so... this is a great community builder, competition prep experience and way to build confidence! Come hop in!
BYOB Night: Bring Your Own Beginner Night is a night designed to let our community bring their non dancer (Muggle) friends to Westie Groove to try WCS for the 1st time! If they take the FREE Beginner Class then can also stay for the dance for FREE! And as a thank you for spreading the love of WCS, the dancers (Wizards) who brought their Muggle Friends will also get in FREE!
Birthday Night: We celebrate any birthdays for that calendar month. If it's your Bday month, you get in FREE and you can bring your friends who haven't done WCS before to come take the class and stay for FREE! We'll also do birthday dances and get the birthday peeps out on the floor and take turns dancing with them.
Huddle Night: We take a moment to stop the music gather around the DJ Booth and cover topics ranging from community education, goal sharing, history of WCS, challenges. A good community communicates. This is our time to do that.
Event Kickoff: When there are conventions a bunch of us are gearing up for, we'll take that night to talk about that event, wear their swag and host something special that embodies that event.
