Stompology 2011


I am feeling incredibly lucky this year, having been invited to a string of "feel good" events. Stompology was everything I had hoped it would be, and I am still amazed that there aren't more copy-cat events. I always tell my most serious, eager, Lindy students, "working on solo movement is the key to improving your partnering." However, I know how hard it can be for laypersons to see the pathway connecting both pursuits, when the partnered dance classes have such a clear, one-to-one pay off. But despite not feeling like the full value of Stompology is understood, I have no doubt that it will continue to be well attended and loved for years and years. Stompology is definitely a go-at-least-once event.
