SUMMARY:Balboa Lesson Series - April and May\, 2026
DESCRIPTION:Come shuffle\, swing\, and groove with us for our winter series of balboa lessons on Tuesdays at 7:45 pm at the Cleveland Heights Recreation Center. Sign up information is linked below.\n\nThis is a six lesson progressive course starting January 6\, 2026 and running through February 17\, with no class on January 27 (though participants will be encouraged to visit the CLE Urban Winery to try out their new moves with the Cleveland Django Club’s monthly jam session!)\n\nClasses are sold as a progressive series with each class building on skills learned the week before. The total cost for the series is $50 for Cleveland Heights residents and $65 for non-residents. (That’s only $8.33/11 per lesson! Wow!)\n\nNo partner or experience necessary. Dancers are encouraged to wear comfortable clothing and wear shoes that allow for little to no traction on the dance floor.\n\nParticipants should also note that GPS directions will bring you to the employee entrance of the rec center. Please use the front entrance\, accessible from the entrance on Monticello near the Mayfield intersection.\n\nBalboa is a partnered swing dance\, born from the thriving multi-cultural community of southern California in the 1920s. Amidst a booming Jazz age\, young adults answered the question\, how do we move and express ourselves when we don’t have any space on the dance floor. This class is for brand spanking-new dancers\, new-to-swing dancers\, and beginner to intermediate level balboa dancers\, and will focus on communication\, connection\, and rhythm. Topics will cover basic steps\, foundational rhythms\, and some fun ways to groove along to high tempo swing music

SUMMARY:Lindy Hop Lesson Series - April and May 2026
DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to partner with Dani Dowler\, a fabulous dancer\, as well as the Shaker Heights community to announce a Lindy Hop lessons series. Sign up here:\n\nhttps://shakerheights.recdesk.com/Commu…/Program/Detail…\n\nThis class will introduce you to Lindy Hop\, a wonderful swing dance that emerged from Harlem in the 1920s and took the world by storm. Students will be introduced to basic footwork\, rhythms\, and patterns with a focus on connection\, musicality\, and community. This will be a progressive class\, with each week building on the one before. Dancers are encouraged to wear comfortable clothing and get ready to have a great time!\n\nThis course is being offered on Fridays at 11:30 am from April 10 through May 15\, 2026. Cost is $50 for Shaker Heights residents and $75 for non-residents.\n\nDani Dowler started her movement journey in gymnastics because her mom figured if she was going to flip off the living room couch\, she might as well do it safely. Since then\, her love of movement has only grown – from competitive dance and gymnastics\, to cross-country\, to pole vault and high jump\, to dancing in the kitchen while cooking and taking nature ‘hikes’ with her nephews. She discovered swing dancing in 2006 in Cleveland and hasn’t looked back. She has a particular fondness for all things solo jazz\, Charleston\, and Lindy Hop; but mostly just enjoys exploring ways to move and groove with swing music. With a BA and MFA in dance\, 30ish years of performing experience\, and 20ish years of teaching experience\, Dani is passionate about bringing excitement\, honesty\, expression\, and body awareness to every class she teaches\, no matter the dance style.
