Casino Partnering Class: BEGINNER
A common misunderstanding about Casino is that it is only done as a group (i.e., Rueda de Casino).
In reality, many of the calls you learn in the Rueda can be led and followed in a partner setting, and you'll find yourself partner dancing 95% of the time at places where Casino-style dance is held. Obviously, the concepts you learn in this class will help you if you end up taking Rueda classes, as well!
