JOIN ME FOR AN AFTERNOON AND I'LL HELP YOU...

  • Learn a variety of steps for the routine-in short, manageable chunks that you can watch as many times as needed!
  • Gain a deeper understanding of how the steps fit together with the tune.
  • Become a more confident improviser by learning my arrangement of steps and seeing how they work together in context.  

Save your seat below, and get everything you need to add some excitement to your dancing and get your yee-haw on!

 Can’t join us live? Lifetime replay access is included in your ticket.

A FEW OF THE TOPICS WE'LL COVER...

  • Simple strategies for learning new steps, including tips on how to practice and how to transition from one step to another.
  • How to cement movements into your muscle memory and make sure you’re not “practicing your mistakes”
  • A deeper dive into common understandings of “clogging steps” vs. “flatfooting steps”, with plenty of practice in both.
  • Gaining an understanding of the cultural context of dance traditions in Appalachia, based on my experiences growing up in the mountains and as a lifelong Kentuckian.
  •  BONUS #1:  A PDF guide to Kentucky Fiddle Tunes for Dancing, with live listening links and TONS of information about our state’s most influential (but not necessarily famous) fiddle and banjo players of today and yesterday. 

  •    BONUS #2: Fast and slow mp3 versions of the Snakewinder tune, for your practicing convenience!
