2:00-3:00 The Yin & Yang of Blues

**SUNDAY JAN-18** (Oakland)

12:00-1:00 The Melting Factor
Having a high "melting factor" is one of the goals of a great follower. We'll show you how to achieve that from one of the most "melty" followers on the Blues dance floor. And what role the lead plays in helping that happen.

1:00-2:00 Less is More
Just what it says. We will show you how to do (a lot) less, but get more out of your blues movement. Think "Dawn Hampton"....

2:30-3:30 Class from Guest Instructors
TBD

3:30-4:30 Stretching & Gushing
We will show you how to answer those moments in the music when it calls for sustained movement (think horns, or long notes).

4:30-5:30 Putting It All Together
This will be the pay-off class. We'll put all of our new skills to use with one of our favorite blues tunes.
