Really, this is just our scheme to get you ready for the Rocky Mountain Balboa Blowout 2012. Shh, don’t tell!
***For the month of February, Salsa at the Rio will be featuring a 30-minute intro lesson each Tuesday! No experience or partner is needed, and the $3 cover gets you the lesson and the dance at the Agave Room at the Rio Grande Mexican Restaurant, so get out and learn this hot, hot Latin dance! Especially since Valentines Day falls on a Tuesday this year! What a great date idea!!! (Wink wink, nudge nudge.) Map here: http://goo.gl/omNPa
***Learn to Lindy Hop! The Jumpin’ JiveCats and Indigo Blues are teaming up to offer the absolutely least expensive way to get really good at the Grandaddy of all modern swing and blues dances, the Lindy Hop. We have put together a 10-week series of classes that will take you from total beginner to being able to swing the night away with confidence! We will cover dancing fundamentals, rhythm, Lindy footwork, turns, dips, transitioning in and out of jockey and tandem Charleston, and everything you need to bring all of your dancing to a new level, no matter what style you may do.
Classes start on Friday, February 10th and will be held at Poudre High School (201 South Impala Drive - just around the corner from Indigo Blues, just off of Mulberry) from 7:15 to 8:15 on February 10th, 17th, and 24th; March 2nd, 9th, 16th, and 23rd; and April 6th, 20th, and 27th. Total cost for the entire session is only $50 - that’s just $5 per class! Plus, participants will get free entry to the Indigo Blues dance each class night and half price entry to Swingin’ Mondays at the Masonic Temple each following Monday! That’s like dancing for free for ten weeks!

***Rocky Mountain Balboa Blowout 2012 starts Friday, February 24th in Denver! This is one of the nation’s premier Balboa events, and if you have never been, you should definitely do yourself a favor and go to at least part of it. The event features two days of classes by world famous instructors, three nights of dancing with one of the best swing bands around! This is literally one of the most fun swing weekend events that I have ever been to and it is not to be missed. Check out http://www.BalboaBlowout.com for more information, a fun video featuring some former JiveCats, a schedule of events, and to register. And you might want to take the JiveCats’ Monday night Balboa classes beforehand to tune you up for the weekend. Just sayin’.
Everyone here at the Rhythm Company wishes you a happy February and hopes you’ll come out and dance with us! We’ll see you on the dance floor!
