Calling everyone who wants to learn and polish a feminine piece of choreography and PERFORM it in front of a live audience!
Are you ready to take your dancing to the next level? Do you want to challenge yourself and maybe do something that’s a little bit scary? Do you want to be part of a supportive group of dancers working toward a common goal?
Then join the Salsa Ladies Styling Performance Team! Over six weeks, you will learn and polish a feminine piece of Salsa choreography and then perform it in front of your adoring fans. You’ll also work on technique and styling that you can take with you beyond the performance group.
This is going to be a fun, Halloween-themed piece that will be performed at our annual Halloween Social.
Here’s the deal:
The group starts on Wednesday September 17th and meets from 7:15-8:45 pm at Amorous Dance (1706 Old Towne Road) for 6 weeks (through October 22nd).
This is geared toward Salsa Level 2 dancers and up. We will be moving quickly so expect to be challenged, but you’ll get detailed weekly recaps of the choreography so you can practice and review outside of class.
You will perform on Saturday October 25th at the Elks Lodge (1113 Sam Rittenberg Blvd). Be prepared to be at the Elks Lodge on Saturday October 25th for a MANDATORY tech/dress rehearsal at 5:45 pm*. You’ll perform around 9 pm.
You will have an additional performance opportunity on Saturday October 18th at Ballroom Dance Charleston (2408 Ashley River Road) during their weekly ballroom dance party. Exact dress rehearsal and performance time TBD (it will be evening). This performance opportunity is optional— it’s a chance for you to practice getting in front of an audience before the big night.
Tuition is $225 for the entire experience and includes: 9 hours of in-person rehearsals, weekly videos breaking down the choreography so you can practice on your own, the additional optional performance opportunity on October 18th at Ballroom Dance Charleston, the tech/dress rehearsal on October 25th and entrance to the Halloween Social on October 25th. If you would like to pay your tuition in two installments, email us at info@holycitysalsa.com.
Tuition does NOT include costumes or shoes. Costumes** will be approximately $48 and you can order them online. Heels are optional, we do ask everyone to wear a flesh-tone shoe. You’re also welcome to wear nude tights or have bare legs.
Because this is a short rehearsal period and we want you and your fellow dancers to be prepared, if you miss more than two rehearsals you may be taken out of the formations and not allowed to perform. These two rehearsals should not be missed in a row. If you miss the first week of rehearsals without clearing it with HCS, you may also be taken out of the formations.
You can choose to participate and not perform if you just want to learn along with us!
Tuition is 100% refundable until Friday September 12th.
Space is limited, register today :D
*You MUST be present for the tech/dress rehearsal on Saturday October 25th to perform. This is to ensure that everyone is prepared and ready to dance in the space!
**We’re planning to use this costume but if it doesn’t work for everyone size-wise, we will adjust.
