<p>Blues dancing has origins reaching back to the 1920s, but has existed in its current form only very recently. Blues is a relatively free-form and relaxed dance style that centers around tension and connection within the parnership. It focuses on developing a deep and relaxed connection with one's partner and matching the pulses and rhythms of both classic and modern Blues music. </p> <p> Prerequisites: No special attire or partner needed! No previous Blues experience required, but previous experience with (or current enrollment with) another dance like West Coast Swing or Lindy Hop is encouraged. Those with prior Blues experience should still find much to learn in the series.</p>
