Frankston Jitterbug Championships - This Thursday

Frankston (Frankston Yacht Club)
12 Jul 2008


Scott is back this Thursday and it will be one of the final classes before the big Australian Jitterbug Championships this Saturday.  With two of our most popular 7.30pm dancers competing we will have a special format this week as follows:

6.30pm Beginner class
7.30pm Eight Beat L2 class...but in a competition format. **
8.30pm L3 Charleston - it's not just a beginner step!

** the 7.30pm will be great for all those who want to understand musicality better and get a feel for what the brave competitors will go thru on the following Saturday. It will be great for your dancing and we will have chocolates for prizes. Nothing too serious...but come and be the original Frankston Jitterbug Champion.

(Remember Erin is competing also on the Saturday night...)
