Salsa classes begin July 10

The Leisure Time Dancers class continued working on its cha-cha sequence this week. Everyone is looking very polished. The East Coast swing class introduced a couple of new steps, the “jump back and clap” and and the “side sweep.” These moves have a lot of character and the class spent much of the hour laughing in enjoyment.

The current class series was extended, so cha-cha and East Coast swing were featured for an additional week on July 3.

The group meets Monday afternoons, in the dance studio, upstairs in Clubhouse 6. On Monday, July 10, a new series will start: salsa will be at 2 p.m., followed by nightclub two-step at 3.

No partner is necessary. Class will rotate so everyone dances. Beginners are welcome; a review of basics will be included. The cost is $7 per person for one class, $11 per person for two classes in a single day. For more information, contact Leisure Time Dancers President Jackie Theis at 310-743-9373.

Much fun was had in Monday's class.
