We worked through our wing prep and wings, plus waltz clogs, Shirley Temples, Maxi Fords and more, all put together in a fun combo to “Handsome Man.” A great class for revisiting the steps, cleaning up your technique and practicing how everything flows together in a combo. 👞✨

Today we worked on wing preparation and really broke down the fundamentals of the step. I even pulled out a chair to show you how to work on getting yourself up and off the ground with a little support. My biggest advice: stay with the preps for a while. Don’t be in a hurry to get to the full wing. Building the strength, coordination and mechanics first will make the actual step so much easier when you’re ready for it. Have fun practicing!

New material is dropping in the classroom on Sunday, and we are working on wings. I’ll be breaking them down step by step, then putting them into a short combo so you can actually practice using them in movement. If you already have your wings, this will be a great combo to drill and clean up. If wings are new for you, I’ll give you some tricks and exercises to start building them. Live class is happening Tuesday night at 5:45 PM — be on the lookout for the update! See you in the classroom on Sunday!

This week’s combo has an old-school, jazzy Broadway feel—the kind that looks easy and effortless, but definitely isn’t! We slowed the tempo down and focused on staying with the music, clean weight exchanges, and keeping the movement relaxed without losing control. You’ll work through single time steps, paradiddles, cramp rolls, flaps, shuffles, and even a Shirley Temple. Head to the Classroom and give this sneaky little challenge a try!

We’re stepping things up with some fun advanced beginner moves and a little more speed. If anything feels like it’s moving too quickly, head back and revisit some of the earlier beginner material in the Classroom. It’s all there to help you build your skills step by step. Get ready—this one is going to be a fun challenge!
