Photo Assignment 4- Jones

For this assignment I attended a swing dancing club class, and documented the process of a typical swing dancing practice session. At first I was confident that I was not going to enjoy this event, however after about twenty minutes the lively atmosphere took over and it was actually very interesting. I highly recommend the class to attend one of these events sometime in the future.

The first image depicts the location of the event. It was held in one of the large ballrooms in Stamp and had an assortment of colorful balloons outside to welcome individuals to the practice session.

This image shows an Extra of the event. She is one of the coordinators for the Swing Dancing Club, and enjoys sharing her passion with beginning dancers. She did not actively participate throughout the class, but was there to answer questions any students had about the club

This image shows the Supporting Cast of the event. Many of them are beginning swing dancers with some intermediate dancers mixed in as well. They are seen here getting into lines to warm up for the session.

This is the Lead of the event. He is an extremely advanced swing dancer and was the coach of the session. He taught and explained many swing dancing moves and tutorials. This image captures him in a more advanced routine he performed at the end of the session.

These two individuals represent the Wild Characters. They were extremely flamboyant, involved, and expressive when performing and practicing their swing dancing moves. They are both seen smiling in this image as they have just completed their first tutorial.
