Announcing Blues Rising I Workshop: March 9-11th, 2007 in San Francisco, CA

Dance Schedule | Class Schedule

Goals:

Blues Rising comes from a strong social dance background, as can be seen in our mission. Staying up late and enjoying the dancing is part of why we do this, which is why you'll note that we have no morning classes.
Schedules and maps will be included in your registration packet!

Prices listed are at-the-door. Be sure to register to save money!

Class Schedule:

The class schedule is up!
We used an innovative voting system where registered and paid students were able to tell us which classes they wanted to take. With that information, we generated a schedule that would help minimize conflicts to help make sure students would be able to take a bunch of the classes they wanted to. We know that there's lots to choose from, so this was a hard job! :)

Everything on the schedule is 'p.m.' -- because we love you. -Blues Rising
