Sign up here! Google Form About Bailey McCully: Bailey McCully has learned, taught, collaborated, and performed across North America and internationally. While traveling and dancing in new communities is a privilege Bailey is so grateful for, Bailey happily calls Bellingham, Washington home. Bailey works with dancers of all ages, from teens and tinies in Bellingham schools to adults. Her work in education has made pedagogical excellence both a passion and defining quality. Bailey aims to create classes in which students feel supported and uplifted as they learn. She focuses on using technique as support for play and expression, encouraging students to discover how they can move rather than how they should move. Just as jazz music lets you hear the personality of the musician, Bailey loves to see students bring their whole self to the dance. Dancing with a partner or dancing solo, Bailey endeavors to share her joy with everyone she gets to dance with.

In our Mummy Mix & Match, Leads will be given a mark on the floor that they must stay as close to as possible, while leading their partner in a fun dance. Follows, on the other hand, will be blindfolded. That's right, blindfolded. Follows will be showcasing their creativity and ability to truly follow! Prelims will be in a tap-out format, meaning couples will be tapped on the shoulder and asked to leave the floor when they've been eliminated. In the first round, judges will tap out couples in sets of 3, at which time partners will rotate, until we get down to our final 3 couples. Finals will be an all-skate format. Follows will be allowed to remove their blindfolds, and Leads will not be confined to a specific spot on the floor. - a true throwdown to determine the final placements. Lindy Hop and Charleston only - no Balboa or Shag. Stay tuned for the fabulous prizes YOU could win! 📅 Sunday, October 25th 11:30 AM - 1:30 PM - Classes at Jordance Studios Stay tuned for more info coming soon! 🕺💃
