Red Alert Routine
Red Alert Routine
Red Alert is a fun, well paced party routine by Sean & Charlie from Sydney. The routine recently placed 2nd in the Team Challenge section of a national competition hosted in Sydney.

An intermediate to advanced routine, it focuses on a number of their signature technique and connection based moves with a few cheeky tricks thrown in. The teaching of this routine is designed to improve all areas of your dancing and will include a full hour workshop on lead spins to improve the guys lead and give the girls some new shapes to work with.

With the routine taught over two days you will get an intense look into how these two hear the music and apply and adapt their moves to it.

Cost: $120pp
Partner: Own partner required.
Performance: We will perform this routine at an upcoming
dance party for those who want to participate.

Virtual membership cards ready NOW for iPhone.
Visit iTunes and search for eCred or eCredible.

eCred
You now have the option of having a standard physical membership card or a virtual card on your phone - or both.
Simply present your virtual at class and we will scan your barcode straight from the phone.

As more and more businesses adopt this technology it means you can have not only your Le Step membership card but lots of other membership cards stored on your phone instead of making your wallet or purse really bulky with cards.

eCred
I (Mick) am marketing the eCred application here in Queensland as a sideline business called 'Virtual Cards Australia'. As such I am in a very privileged position to help any dancers who have businesses that would benefit from a virtual membership or loyalty cards. Gift cards are also available and there is lots more to come. If you want to chat more (with no pressure to use the system) please give me a call on 0412 174 111. If it works for your business then great and if it doesn't that's fine too.

Think of it this way, if it's in your wallet we can probably put it on a phone instead.

Beginner Workshop - 20th March
The aim of the beginners' workshop is to get you out there on the floor enjoying freestyle as soon as possible - after all, that's what it's all about! You will learn a number of base moves (moves which can be varied later on) in more detail than our regular classes allow. The basic techniques you'll learn from these base moves can then be applied to the many variations you'll encounter in our Intermediate / Advanced classes. Beginner workshops do not require your own partner but you do need to book.



Technique covered will include:
  • Rhythm and Timing
  • Handholds and Leads from the Man
  • Spinning Technique
  • Footwork
  • Freestyling
  • Basic Dips and Drops; and
  • Developing Your Own Style.
