SHAKE A LEG The workshop offers training in a variety of dance forms

The Swingers, a popular dance studio, is offering Bangaloreans a chance to shake a leg with grace and style this summer through its Groove 'n' Summer Dance Workshop.

The annual workshop, which kicks off on April 12, provides fundamental classes in theatre dance, jazz ballet, rock 'n' roll, break dance, salsa, jive, hip-hop and Latin jazz. The workshop focuses on styles popular in musicals such as Beauty and the Beast, Cats, Lion King and Chicago and is designed and directed by B.R. Prasanna, the director of The Swingers.

At the end of the 18-day workshop, there will be a stage performance at the Chowdaiah Memorial Hall, based on the theme "Broadway Versus Hollywood".

The range of activities, culminating in the final performance, has been designed to groom individuals and lead them from being amateurs to professionals. Through the workshop, participants will learn to create professional costumes, sets, lights, rehearsals and performances.

For more information on the workshop, contact The Swingers on 25203900/77.
