🚨🔔‼️WORKSHOP ALERT ‼️🔔🚨
Join us for an exciting country swing workshop focused on creating different whips and improving your closed position. This class will break down the technique, timing, and lead/follow mechanics behind smooth and dynamic patterns. Along with helping dancers feeling more comfortable and confident in closed positions. This is perfect for dancers looking to add flow and provide a stronger connection to their partner in their dance. All levels welcome although basic understanding of country swing fundamentals is recommended.
✨Sophie David✨
I’ll telling y’all, this girl is someone to watch out for. She has been coming to my class for the last year and her progress is outstanding. Definitely one of my favorite upcoming follows right now to dance with. Can’t wait to see what the future looks like for her.

Allow us to introduce to you, our good friend and The Showdown’s ✨C H I E F A M B A S S A D O R✨Hunter Tilbury from California!
Hunter will oversee all ambassadors for The Showdown and we are so excited to welcome him to North Carolina. Here’s a little bit more about him.
➡️ When did you start country dancing?
✨I started country dancing back in June 2023 with @topshelfdancing .
➡️ What do you love most about attending country dance events?
✨The part that I enjoy most are the connections and friendships that are created through these events. I can’t even count the amount of people that I have met through country dancing.
➡️ Why do you want to come to the showdown?
✨Personally for me, I had a lot of regret not attending the last two volumes of the showdown. One this will give me an opportunity to meet a lot more of the east coast dance community. Second, it’ll be my first time in North Carolina. 😁
➡️ What does it mean to you to be in this role?
✨ This role is very important to not only myself but also my community. As a community leader it is important to demonstrate the characteristics in which we expect our students, peers, and mentors to uphold. This event will be another opportunity to represent and expand positivity for the country swing community. Super blessed and thankful for this opportunity.

✨KYA SOLORIO ✨
I’ve known Kya quite a while now, which is why I was super excited when she asked me to compete together for the high low comp @swingtober . This was such a fun dance and experience. Can you believe she’s only been dancing country swing for a little over a year? Can’t wait to see what you up in Redding. Watch out people she’s going to moving up the ranks faster than you think.
.
Make sure you check out her new dance page @the.groove.garden for when she is teaching and holding events in her area.
