- Matt Auclair“Technical. Refined. Classy. Elegant. Technique-driven teaching.
One of the best teachers in the business.”
- Jonathan RogulGroup Classes
One of the best, least expensive ways to get started, expand your repertoire, or work on technique is to take group classes. Brandi teaches weekly group classes in San Diego at Starlight Dance Studio.
Wednesdays 6:30-7:30 Basic
This class is appropriate for brand-new beginners or more experienced dancers looking to work on technique in the context of basic figures. Brandi teaches material that appeals to a wide range of experience levels.
Wednesdays 7:30-8:30 Not-So-Basic
This class focuses on skills to take dancers to their next level, focusing on technique in the context of socially leadable patterns.
Classes are progressive. Please join us on the first Wednesday of a month. More information is available at http://www.starlightdance.com
Workshops
Workshops are a great way to drop in and improve your individual and partnering skills. Available at events or workshop weekends, these classes are often leveled and titled so you know what the intent of the hour is. They can vary widely from one event to the next.
Please check out Brandi's event page to see when she will be teaching workshops near you.
Intensives
For when you are ready to dig in and study West Coast Swing at a deeper level (and it's never too early) intensives give you a focused look at various concepts that will skyrocket your dancing to a new place. Brandi's technical approach will open your eyes to techniques that will allow you to achieve high level artistry through solid fundamental technique.
See Brandi's calendar for upcoming intensives.
