Who's ready to
flash mob?! Remember the WCS Flash Mob routine performed
at the CSDS Halloween Dance?! Well, fresh on the heels of that
comes the official Hustle Flash Mob
routine choreographed by DC area instructors, Erica Smith and
Joyce Szili.
While we won't be performing the routine in true flash mob style (taking
over a public space), we will
perform and film (to be posted on YouTube and Facebook) the routine
at our May 21st dance and we need YOU to participate!! So, here's
what you need to do:
1)
Get a partner! It's not too late!
2)
Watch the YouTube video and
learn the routine. Step Sheets are available here.
3) Come to Swing Swap where
the song, Just Dance by Lady Gaga, will be played each week sometime
between 7:45 - 8 pm. We'll gather at the far end of the gym to
dance the routine. We won't be teaching the routine during Swing
Swap but if anyone needs help with fine tuning, there should be a
few folks available for assistance.
4) If you
have any questions, contact organizer Adela
Su.
So c'mon ..... just dance!!

Highlights from the April Dance
Thanks to everyone
who came to our April dance! We had some new faces and
look forward to seeing everyone again, esp. the Lindy Hoppers!!
Thank you, too, to Kristin Wenger for once again being our DJ and Lesson
Instructor.
Our May dance
features the CSDS DJing debut of Erica Shergold of Shergold Studio!! Erica
has been a Lesson Instructor in the past and we're excited to have her DJ
for us now too. Erica will teach two Line Dances as the pre-dance
lessons, both are included in your admission. Fallsview Rock
(danced to "All I See") will be taught at 6:30 pm and
Countdown (danced to "DJ Don't") will be taught at 7:15
pm. Our dance is 8-11 pm. Remember we move back to the MAC this
month!
