Friday, June 19, 8–9 PM, West Coast Swing by Marlon Mills

Marlon “International” Mills is one of New York’s most well-known dance personalities in the Salsa & more recently the West Coast Swing dance communities, having traveled to many congresses/conventions and events in the states, throughout Europe, Asia, Australia, and the Caribbean. Marlon was born in NY to parents from the Caribbean and was educated in NY & Spain.
His drive to learn Salsa became quite apparent after studying in Madrid, Spain. He found his love of dance through Salsa in 2001, having been taken to a class by a co-worker and has not looked back since.

In seeking constant, never ending improvement he was inspired to expand his dance repertoire in Jan 2009 after seeing a breathtaking show in an unfamiliar dance style that he would later learn is called West Coast Swing (WCS) while at a Salsa Congress in Sydney, Australia. After dabbling in a few workshops here and there, he finally decided to dive into classes and learning West Coast Swing in Summer of 2010. Being fully committed and passionate about this dance, he was asked to become a Board member of Gotham Swing Club, NYC’s non-profit Swing club dedicated to the promotion and growth of West Coast Swing, in Fall of 2011. Having trained in the US & France with many top instructors, including the world renown Jordan Frisbee & Tatiana Mollman, he continually trains in this dance style to grow his knowledge for the benefit of himself and his students.

Also, Marlon is a Teaching Artist for the “Dancing Classrooms” program, teaching ballroom dance to kids throughout NYC public schools. When not teaching, he produces a weekly Salsa event here in NYC as well several monthly West Coast Swing events, and collaborates on annual events such as the Annual New York Int’l Salsa Congress. He has been teaching dance in NY for the past twelve years and has taught in Switzerland as well. He is known for his warm smile, amazing lead, and excellent teaching abilities. Through clear teaching and strong fundamentals, he takes people from having two left feet to dancing up a storm while having fun on the dance floor in a short amount of time.

His goals are to continue teaching, dancing, traveling the world, and positively impacting the lives of others.

His motto- Changing lives, one dance at a time!

Class Description:
West Coast Swing (WCS) is an awesome partner dance that has become one of the most sought after dances to learn. It encourages alot of musical interpretation and play on the music and it allows both partners to improvise steps while dancing together. It has also gained much popularity as it can be danced to contemporary music of a wide variety of musical genres (R&B, Pop, Blues, Soul, Hip Hop, Country, and Alternative – to name a few).
Come try it out and see what all the buzz is about!

Tuesday, June 23, 6–7 PM, Bollywood Zumba by Kanushree Jain

Namaste! My name is Kanushree Jain. I fell in love with the festive glamour of Bollywood dance at the age of 8 years old and have been practicing it ever since. During college, I studied Contemporary dance at Hunter and learned Jazz, Hip Hop, and Zumba at Alvin Ailey Dance School. I also delved into Latin dances such as Salsa, Hustle, and Bachata at Paul Pellicoro’s DanceSport. For the last two years, I have also explored the mechanics of partnering through Lifts and Dips classes with America’s Got Talent finalist Dave Paris at Piel Canela Dance School. I am now studying ballet with the renowned Kat Wildish and love trying different styles on the social dance floor such as Zouk, Kizomba, and Argentine Tango. I am always exploring different dance styles because I love studying how each culture has interpreted movement and blending them to create something new. Bollywood Zumba is just that – two forms of entirely different dances coming together to give a new take on the popular Latin aerobic workout!

Class Description:
Welcome to my world of Bollywood! Bollywood Zumba is a hybrid of Bollywood dance and Zumba, the Latin dance aerobic workout. Bollywood dance is a festive dance characterized by high energy, lyricism, and lip synching. This form of dance originated from Bollywood, which is the largest film industry in the world located in Bombay, India. So be prepared to sweat, lip sync, and have fun! No prior experience needed, just come with your comfy sweatpants or tights, t-shirts and willingness to party!
