Blues Workshop with Kenneth Shipp
15.-17.03.2024
Nuremberg, Germany
In March we are proud to present for our monthly Blues dance workshop Kenneth Shipp from St. Louis, USA.
Join our group of warm-hearted dancers at our Blues week-end of classes and parties on the 15th to 17th March 2024 in Nuremberg.
TEACHER
Kenneth Shipp
Kenneth Shipp hails from St. Louis, MO as an instructor who grew up dancing hip-hop and DJing breaking comps before jumping into Blues. He has spent the past few years passionately studying the family of Blues idioms, incorporating his nerdy personality along the way. Kenneth’s life experiences inform his dancing and teaching style so that students walk away with a better historical and contextual understanding. With every class and practice, he’ll encourage you to approach social dancing with coolness, relaxation, or in other words “Chill The F$%& Out.” When he’s not dancing, you can likely find him ranting about the latest blockbuster movie, game, or nerd convention, or desperately trying to dismantle toxic institutions.
