And that’s what we’re doing! It’s a house party at our new studio home in Lowe Mill A&E! It’s fun and low pressure, we don’t have an official lesson but we’ll be happy to show you some moves. You can bring your own snacks to share, or not, same with drinks.
This is a community building event. Yes, we dance but Friday Nights are for being together as a community. Being with our friends and doing the thing we love. Swing dance is one of those things!
We’ll have dj-ed music, but if any musicians wish to come and play with us, please feel free!

Josephine Glass Studio 2008 in energetic Lowe Mill ARTS & Entertainment invites you to learn Capoeira with our local Professor Tarantula!
Wear comfortable clothing and bring a water bottle!
Capoeira is done in a circle, with opponents using a combination of kicks, sweeps, headbutts, and other moves to outmaneuver each other. They use deception, flexibility, and fluidity to avoid direct force, and instead flow with their opponent’s movements until the right moment to attack.
Capoeira is performed to traditional Brazilian songs and musical instruments, such as the bow, which provides the rhythm. The music sets the mood and helps participants create a rhythmic dialogue with their bodies, minds, and spirits.
Capoeira emphasizes the importance of the practitioner’s mental and spiritual state, in which the mind and body can react as one.
Classes are $15 pay in person.
