If you have never shuffled before, this is the program for you. Designed with total beginners in mind, we move really slow and break everything down in detail for you to make sure you are able to understand the concepts fully. Many people come to this series with no prior dance background at all and they are very successful, so if you’re feeling nervous to try.. don’t be :)
If you have more shuffle experience than a total beginner, but still don’t feel ready for int/adv classes, this series is great for you too. We always teach more advanced moves/modifications/concepts for those who feel ready for a new challenge!

Topics covered in this program will include:
-Foundations of Melbourne Shuffle
-Foundations of Cutting Shapes (UK style of shuffling)
-How to transition from move to move in order to create combos and freestyle
-How to make the moves look clean and smooth

Prerequisites for this series: If you’ve already taken the Beginner (intro) series, or you are independently already comfortable with the basic steps like Running Man, T-Step, Charleston, and X-Step, you are ready to join Building Blocks!
Building Blocks is the next step after the Intro series, created for dancers who know the basic steps but freeze up when the music starts and it’s actually time to DANCE. Each month rotates through a different building block of dance confidence: Make It Yours (turning your moves into your moves), Link It Up (smoothing out the transitions and finding creative connections to help you flow), and Find Your Pocket (learning to listen and respond to the music in your own way). Take them in any order! Each month stands on its own, and together they combine to build your own unique shuffle personality. You can take each series over and over, engaging with the concepts on a deeper level each time - making this series perfect for shufflers beginner-intermediate level.
Link It Up
Link It Up addresses the actual bottleneck creating your freestyle anxiety: transitions. Here is where you learn and practice the unglamorous but essential skill of flowing smoothly between moves without all the stop-and-start.
You can expect to learn:
✅ Explore + establish your “connector vocabulary” so you’ve got muscle memory that keeps you from getting stuck
✅ Weight shift, pivot, and traveling concepts that take you past the cookie cutter beginner combos
✅ Strategies to control your energy, create patterns & make connections on the fly
✅ New combos and transitions to inspire your creativity
✅ Cultural context and insight into both Melbourne Shuffle & Cutting Shapes styles
✅ How to move with confidence and cultivate the mindset that will carry you through your dance journey with strength, integrity, creativity, and JOY
Come with a learner’s mentality, ready to ask questions and experiment and have breakthroughs and discover new pieces of yourself you didn’t know were there! I am so excited to dance with you and help you flourish :)

Gloving Foundations: Flails
Saturday, 11/7 | 11am-12:30pm
Unleash your flow at this beginner level workshop designed for those with zero gloving experience, or who want to improve their foundation for flails + whips.
Time to turn your chaotic motions into clean, circular magic! In Flails Foundation, we’re taking one of gloving’s most expressive concepts and breaking it down so you can execute flails with precision and intention.
We’ll start by drilling both hands (in both directions) to lock in muscle memory, clean arm path control, and full circular planes. Once the mechanics are locked in, well cover core flail patterns and play with creative variations. We’ll finish with a quick teaser into advanced flail concepts to give you plenty of inspiration for your practice!
If you have a set of gloves, bring them! But gloves are not required to practice the moves or take the class.
Next Step: Transitions + Musicality
Saturday, 11/21 | 11am-12:30pm
A great lightshow is all about how seamlessly you weave concepts together in time to the music! Transitions + Musicality focuses on the art of flow, teaching you how to come up with your own transitions both during practice, and while giving a show, so your movement feels directly tied to the track.
We’ll talk about what a transition is, walk through examples (featuring flail-to-concept and concept-to-flail entries and exits), and explore how to build transitions on the fly. Then, we’ll put it all together with music, focusing on timing, building tension, unleashing that tension, and choosing transitions that flow naturally with the energy of the track.
Note: Class #1 will be helpful for extra flail polish and creative ideas, but is not required in order to join this class! All concept levels (including total beginners) are welcome.
If you have a set of gloves, bring them! But gloves are not required to practice the moves or take the class.

About the class:
Song: Genie by ero808
Get ready to challenge your speed, your dexterity, and your ability to drop into the music and truly express the vibe. This choreo is for those ready to work on new combos that might not come easily, but that feel amazing once they click. For everyone in their TRAINING era - come ready to work, play, and celebrate your successes along the way. This will be attainable to my Intermediate level dancers throughout the class when we are dancing to a slower tempo, and will challenge all the Advanced baddies once we start drilling it at speed closer to the end.
It’s been several months since I offered an advanced choreo and I was so devastated to have to cancel this one when I was sick last month. So excited to have it back on the calendar so we can tackle this footwork together. See you in the stu!
