Weekly Class Topics For Wednesday 6:30pm and Saturday 9:30am Mixed Level Classes, we follow a simple format: learn a soft or smooth movement, a sharp or accent movement, footwork and shimmy. After we get through the material we put the moves together in simple combinations to the music. For the Wednesday 7:30 and Saturday 10:30 classes, we work on an intermediate level move, shimmy with layering, and a longer, more advanced combination.
