At 7:30 p.m. before the dance, Andrew K. Stein 
(Andrew.K.Stein at gmail.com) will begin a 3-week series of 
beginner lessons. Andrew teaches a style called New Swing, a 
reaction to the overly-complex nature of most dance 
education.  New Swing takes advantage of swing's 
improvisational nature to advance a more holistic approach, 
emphasizing the common grammar than makes up 90% of all 
swing moves.  In other words, New Swing teaches you how to 
start faking it after just a lesson or two.

If you (or someone you know) is the kind of person who likes 
trying new things even when they mess up, New Swing may be 
the ideal way to get up and dancing swing quickly.  Which is 
to say that it's great for guys (and female leads) that want 
to learn to dance but haven't had much success in the past.  
Absolutely no previous dance experience necessary.
