Blues Rising - San Francisco

#1 Post by Dr. Feelgood » Wed Feb 14, 2007 9:48 am

Come on, get your Blues on...I couldn't say it better than Cid does:

There is a new workshop coming up in march (san francisco). It is a blues workshop where focus is blues dancing as it has evolved on the current social floor. This revolutionary blues event will take the average social dancer to the next level. We are inviting the most fun to dance with, amazing to watch, and great to be around national dancers from all over the country. They will be sharing some of the ideas, techniques, moves, and movements that inspire us. Mark your calendars, March 9-11, for www.bluesrising.com

San Francisco is doing something new, and we want you to come! This workshop is going to blow your weekend out of orbit with many awesome instructors, a large variety of live music, excellent DJs, and of course, an entire weekend filled to the brim with heaps and heaps of blues love.

Our goal is to highlight blues dancing as we experience it in today's social scene. We're bringing in our favorite national social dancers to teach and inspire you with what they do so well, connect and have fun on the social dance floor. They'll share their ideas, techniques, moves, and personalities with all of us, sending waves of inspiration and energy through the entire weekend. You don't want to miss this!
