Coming to us from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Morgan takes the intimidating out of dance and replaces it with fun. She takes that "in your head-- Am I doing this right?" feeling and replaces it with "Wow! This feels so natural." She teaches dance to regular people who seek to have fun, learn a new hobby, and experience the connection of dance. In this class you will: +Have a ton of fun, enjoy body movement, experience the joy of partner dance, practice mindfulness and make meaningful connections. +Unlock your own creativity by learning the building blocks of all dance, rather than predetermined choreography. +Gain confidence by learning how to lead and follow. (It's really not as intimidating as you may think, and it makes dancing SO much better for both people.) +Learn dance etiquette, the magic of connection, and art of consent in partner dancing--so EVERYONE gets to have fun & feel safe. You'll want to bring socks to dance in. And, consider bringing a notebook to take notes and draw pictures, which will help make dancing SUPER easy while being kind to your memory post-lesson focus.
