Brittney Valdez is back at West Coast Wednesdays on July 30, and she’s bringing her signature style: sharp technique, serious musicality, and a teaching approach that just makes sense. Expect clear instruction, creative movement, and a few “oh dang, that was cool” moments along the way.
🎶 After class, Don Schanaberger takes the DJ booth—and that’s when things really start to move. Known for his smooth transitions and dancer-focused sets, Don keeps the floor flowing with every track. No filler. All fire.

👟 Lessons with Brittney Valdez
🎧 Music by Don Schanaberger
7:45 - The Newcomer Mixer
New-ish to WCS or WCW? Come Say Hey.
Right after the beginner lesson, we host a low-key Newcomer Mixer—designed to help you settle in, ask questions, run through what you just learned, and connect with other dancers (new and seasoned) who remember exactly what those first nights felt like.
No pressure. No awkward intros. Just a welcoming space to dance a little more, meet some friendly faces, and feel part of the crew.
This week’s mixer will be hosted by one of our favorite regulars who are there to help you feel at home on the floor.
For the evening:
- Doors open at 6:45 PM;
- The novice-level lesson starts at 7:00 PM; the intermediate-level lesson starts at 7:45 PM;
- The newcomer mixer goes from 7:45-8:30 PM;
- Open dancing will run from 8:30 - 11:00 PM.
If there are any questions, feel free to reach out to April Prince or Ken Dillard, or email us at:
