Frequently Asked Questions
- I'm just a beginner/improver level dancer. Will the lessons be too hard? We are offering all levels of workshops from beginner through to advanced. Even with the harder level dances, once the live feed has ended the good news is you will be able to play them again and again as well as rewind.
- Where will the teaches be/How can I find the videos? All of the videos will appear in the Digital Dance Weekend private group that you are a member of. The teaches and social dancing will appear in the group as a post, and you can click on them to view them!
- How will the lessons work? All lessons will be posted as live videos with the choreographer/instructor leading the live video with you ready to learn! There will be a schedule posted with the time slots of when each instructor will be going live. Click the video to join in once they start and follow along!
- How will social dancing work? A YouTube link will appear as a post following the Live Video Teach. Clicking the link leads you to a YouTube playlist where the instructor will dance through a few songs. Simply click "Play ALL" and you will have all the dances played in sequence if there is more than one in that playlist. We plan to keep the schedule running on time. If the previous teach runs long, the social dance might be posted later. Note: the YouTube socials are pre-recorded, but don’t worry, they will be dancing with you via the video. If you are mirroring to your smart TV via phone or iPad, make sure you click the three dots on the right and click Open in YouTube.
- How do I get in touch with the choreographer/instructor after the teach? You can use the stepsheet to obtain the choreographer/instructor’s contact information and message them after their teach and social dancing is over. If the sheet isn't readily avaliable, search for another sheet on Coperknob or Linedancer for contact information.
- Where can I find the step sheets? We have asked choreographers to teach the best and newest dances they have. Not all of the dances taught this weekend will have a step sheet readily available. The step sheets that are created can be found in the Files section of the Digital Dance Weekend group after the dance has been taught. If the step sheet has not been released yet, you can look for it once the dance is officially released to the public. Remember, you may be getting to learn these dances before anyone else! (:
- Where can I find the videos after the Live Stream has ended? The videos will continue to live in the Digital Dance Weekend group for your viewing pleasure when you want to view and re-watch them.
- I’m having a great time, how can I interact with folks? You can take a selfie of you taking a lesson and post it on Facebook and tag @Digital Dance Weekend so others can see the fun you’re having.
- Can I comment on the videos that are live or social dancing? Of course! We highly encourage it! If you are having issues, though, please reach out to us at [email protected].
- How do I calculate what time the workshops are in my time zone? You can use this website to figure out what time it is where you live compared to EST in Florida. https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html
- How to get notified from the Facebook group? Make sure you turn on the notification to ALL and sort the newsfeed to show the most recent posts.
- How do I locate the Live Teaches, Social Dances, and Music links easily? We have categorize the posts. On the top of the group page, scroll to Topics and select "Live Teaches" for example. You can find all Live Teaches there. The same for social dances and the music links.
