Swing lesson 22 & 23 | Werribee

(Wednesday nights at Werribee Kindergarden Community Room)

Arg! I forgot to journal last week’s lesson!
Dec. 6th In brief:
– Tandem Charleston.
– Speedies (Charleston to beat four, lead’s hand on follow’s hips, turning inside to step right foot behind, then left foot opens up to the left, right foot crossing over again, stamp down on 7 and hold)
– (returning the Speedy, step with left foot on 1, right foot back across to the right, step on 3, left foor across the front to the right, step on 5, back-kick and step with right foot on 7 and 8 as per Vanilla (basic) Charleston).
– Tandem turn to the left, same as Fun Pit.
– Dorothies, same as Fun Pit.
– Suzie Qs! (Right foot steps in-front of left forming a kind of T, pivot on right to open up, left foot out and step, right foot comes back to do the same etc.)

Last night, Dec 13th in brief – final Werribee class for the year. Bridie’s Brunswick was renovating this Monday, so no lesson until the 18th, final lesson for Brunswick.
– Em… what did we do? Oh yeah, it was a Jitterbug stroll which I can’t really explain in a way I’ll remember, it’s in my head now so I’ll just have to practice. This stroll involved much clapping, finger-snapping and what sounds frighteningly similar to yodelling… but it was fun, and a good way to wrap up the semester!

One last class at Brunnie for the year which is good seeing as I’ve burned out my second discount card already and will need to order another one!

Swing forever!
