SOLO JAZZ DANCE CLASS
Friday, November 13th 8:30pm- 9:30pm ET Carla Crowen (Heiney) has been teaching Lindy Hop and other forms of Vintage swing dancing for over 15 years. She lays claim to some of the most prestigious competition titles including American Lindy Hop Champion, US Open Lindy Hop Champion, World Lindy Hop Champion, and International Lindy Hop Champion.  She has also choreographed for the well-known and well-loved hit dance show, “So You Think You Can Dance.”  In 2011 Carla was creative director for a new hit dance show featuring several full-sized orchestras and professional dancers entitled “Let’s Dance” which toured parts of the US and Canada. Recently, Carla Crowen placed second in the “All Star Luck of the Draw” at the prestigious International Lindy Hop Championships in 2018.
She has traveled all over the world teaching dance including numerous times at the infamous Herrang Dance Camp in Sweden.  She has performed on the prestigious stages of Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center. Social dancing and teaching are passions for Carla and she thinks that learning to dance is something everyone is capable of doing. She has an amazing ability to communicate movement and partnering in her teaching. Her dancing is grounded in technique and improvisation which coincides with the jazz music she loves to dance to. Carla is an avid fan of having fun while learning and not taking yourself too seriously.  Carla relocated to Pennsylvania and has been working hard on creating a new, up and coming swing dance community there including a wonderful dance group known as “The SugarSnaps!” If you are ever in the Central PA area, go visit them at  www.LindyCentral.com.

General Things to

During these hard times, we must do what we can to protect the local dance community and postpone large gatherings until we can ensure your safety. The reality is COVID-19 could easily spread throughout our dance community. If we do what we can now (i.e. consistent hand washing, social distancing, limiting exposure to large crowds) community spread can be reduced dramatically.

Stay tuned on social and check your inboxes for future plans, as we will collaborate with the rest of the community and continue to create dance opportunities during this difficult time.

If anyone falls ill please call the COVID-19 Call Center available 24/7
