“One of the best weekends of my life.”
“I had a blast at OGB — probably best blues weekend I’ve experienced from a learning perspective. ”
If that’s what dancers said this year, won’t you want to come next year?
When: September 21-23 2012.
Where: Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage in Missouri — so far out in the backwoods even your GPS won’t get you there! But it’s an easy carpool from St Louis, Chicago and other midwestern cities.
Why: Between small group dance classes and break-out discussions, this is an event that will energize you and give you new tools for your home scene and your dancing. It will also give you a window into ecovillage life.
What: Off Grid Blues is a community-focused dance event. Some of the best dance instructors in the nation will be there to share their knowledge and love of dance with you. Whether you’re an experienced teacher thinking about your own teaching, or a student looking take it to the next level, you’ll get lots of personal attention. You’ll also have the opportunity to get your hands dirty if you wish with organic gardening or earthen plaster. And plan to dance the night away to great DJs and our local blues band.
Who: Space is limited so we expect to cap attendance at 50-ish. Plus, we have a great line-up of instructors and djs.
How Much: There will be one price, which includes meals. In order to have enough facilities for everyone, 12 people must also stay at the The Milkweed Mercantile Bed and Breakfast for an extra fee for the weekend.
