In the Works

I’m the President of the Dartmouth Swing Dance Club at the moment and for the foreseeable future until i graduate in 2013.
Why does that matter?

Because Swing Dancing at this age isn’t super popular. Rather, i should say, West Coast Swing isn’t very popular.
But again, Why does that matter?

Right now as an organization, we are holding together barely and trying to get creative in our options. We’ve started to get on the West Coast Swing Circuit and start learning more and more.

But Why does that matter?
I hopefully plan to be able to hold an inter-college Swing Competition. At Dartmouth. Is that big? i don’t know, but i want to start to spread Swing into the collegiate scene. Teens and all sorts should enjoy this wonder.
So Wish me luck in my planning. I’ll need it.

Choreography and Practicing!

Hi guys,
One of the most awesome things i’ve ever loved about WCS is the choreographies. I also think it’s probably the quickest way to improve. The sheer intensity and practice as well as the the creative and interpretive demand is really up there.

I’ve chosen a song and will be working on my first choreography. I know it’s not much, but at least i’m starting some strict regimented practice. which will be good. Also as a lead, learning to spin more seems like a wonderful idea.
