Zydeco/Cajun Dance Classes
Intermediate Level at The Beat in Berkeley
This is Dana and Lisa's Intermediate Level class that builds on the Basic Class Series that's held on Tuesday nights, also at the Beat.

Knowledge of the Basic Two-Step, Waltzing, and some Partner Technique is required and taking the Basic class is very highly recommended as the Wednesday goes quite a bit faster..

This class also involves much more intricate footwork, turns, leads and follows..

It's held at the Beat, 2560 9th St. In Berkeley..Time is 8:15-10 and cost is $45 bucks for the 4 week series..

Any questions, call Dana at (415) 285-6285 or check out his website at
www.sfzydeco.com.

Thanks

Dana D.
