Led by Eric Scutaro, Waacking is centred around creating a community dedicated to hosting safe spaces, confidence, security, attitude and positivity.
Waacking was created in the LGBT clubs of Los Angeles during the ‘70s disco era. Distinguished by its rotational arm movements, musicality, posing and emphasis on expressiveness.
This class welcomes all levels of experience of waacking or vogue whether you are seasoned, returning to the styles, or wanting to be introduced for the first time to this uplifting and welcoming dance culture.
Delivered in partnership with Queerside
