Ca me fait penser a quelques choses

SaigonSwingers Oi !

as most of you have noticed, last night we had a special guest at La Fenetre Soleil:

Sylvain Devin, visiting Viet Nam while on a one-year trip around the world.

Here is his website if you want to know more about him. But mainly he studied Musicology at university and later Theatre School, amongst many other things! Please check it out!

Sylvain has kindly agreed to delay his departure and share with us some of the swing tips he has picked up all over the world! yeah! in the way of a little workshop for lindy 1 and above over this coming weekend:

- friday 27th of june:

  • time: 8 to 9h30 pm.
  • place: La Fenetre Soleil.
  • content: one hour and a half to warm up and learn a cool couple choregraphy. The idea being to go and put those new moves to practice at the Dose X party right after that ;). La fenetre has agreed to let us use their space if we are at least 15. come many !!!
  • fee: Free but contributions for Sylvain's time are welcome and of course drinks to keep La Fenetre Soleil happy to host us!

  • time: 2 to 5 pm.
  • place: will be announced soon.
  • content: leg tricks, shines or what to do with your stiff body during the breaks!, and continue the choregraphy from friday night to its full length, so we can put on a real show on our future nights out!
  • fee: 150.000 per person, 200.000 per couple (100.000 each)

Hi Sabine,

Love the initiative and taking-of-action! It's the excitement and passion of people like you (and, of course, our guest Sylvain) who will bring our community to new levels of coolness. Thanks for making a difference. :-)

My comments on this event and its communication:
  • You might consider adding a tiny bit of marketing copy about Sylvain, e.g. "Sylvain is a King of Swing, and has studied Musicology at university and later Theatre School!"
  • Suggested subject line: "Special Event this Friday and Saturday!"
Cheers,
Chris


This is all happening so nice. We are having everything to push our dance scene grow strong and fast!
Thuy :-)
