NOTE: We are now doing FNB once a month! The schedule is below.
Join us every third Friday for an online solo blues lesson with one of our instructors. We will host a Zoom social dance with our regular DJs. We will update this page every month, and you can find information on our Facebook and Meetup Pages!
We will be conducting lessons and socials via Zoom. (Download the Zoom Client for Meetings version.) If the DJ shares their list after the dance, they will be Spotify or YouTube playlists.
Friday, April 30th
This week our Virtual Friday Night Blues format is a 45 minute lesson followed by music and dancing.
Instructor: Grey Armstrong
DJ: Charlley Ward
Topic: Easing back into Dance
Description: Many of us have been away from dancing and have a lot of feelings about where we were and where we are now. This class is to explore how to move through that discomfort and find our dance again.

SPOTLIGHT DJ SET
For our Virtual FNB on May 1st, Odysseus made an awesome Spotify playlist that takes you through a variety of genres! If you listen to it straight through it takes you through the decades of blues music starting with Negro spirituals all the way to Funk and Soul.
