Eight Hours of Sexy Salsa Styling for both Men and Women!
Guys... you will learn A TON... of what a woman
Wants,
Needs,
When,
and HOW OFTEN
... on the dance floor!!

Ladies, learn When and How to style, how NOT TO BE HEAVY to your partner,
finesse, technique, speed, balance, spins, and most importantly,
HOW TO LOOK GREAT DOING IT ALL!!!

WHAT WE WILL COVER:

Styling with your partner:
When we "practice with a partner",
On occasion we will briefly work with each other, to understand what it's like to be a leader and follower (empathy here), and understand what our partners are going through while trying to lead or follow us.
This method teaches us how to be light on our feet, and be rid of the heaviness and sluggishness most men complain about. .;)

EVERY BOOTCAMP...
We will practice new moves, slick styling that Edie learns and picks up as she travels the world, including moves involving specific "Glamour Girl" Styling techniques.

#5 floor connection, Small to negligible “One”, Slot dancing, self-propelled spins.

Spins at Every Sunday Bootcamp!!!
for Men and Women!

Brief summary of High Speed Spins and Turns. Mastering spins.
Spot turns, pencil turns, chenet turns, and pivots. Touch and Go hand techniques, acute spotting, and split second hand awareness techniques.
Mastering your partnering spins.

How to Style your Spins - Men and Women!

Here we will discuss Edie's Unique Lead and Follow techniques -
SO YOU CAN EASILY FOLLOW Advanced Dancers.
Learn stylish, high speed multiple pivots, lifting the leg, and single leg spins.

AND MORE.....

Head bangers, footwork, Freedom Concept moves, with and without a partner. Fancy footwork, fancy arm work, playing with the music, letting loose, feeling the rhythm, confidence-building time. Sneaking in Copa and Cross Body Lead styling - without ever interrupting his lead.

Sensual and exciting Freedom Concept moves. Kicks - when and when NOT to kick, arm sweeps, with and without a partner. Head bangers, shoulder shimmies, and shoulder work. "Still as a mouse" moves without interrupting his lead, but look AWESOME in the process!

T-stance and Hijacking. We will practice these concepts with and without a partner. Hijacking, and "stealing the moment" moves, both in a hijack and in T-stance positions.

Put it all together!  Rehearse and review what you've
