Description

Summertime Chi is filled with plenty of opportunities to dance the night away, including at the city’s SummerDance series next week. You’ll catch Chicagoans Footworking, doing the Polka Hop, the Cha-Cha Slide, and, of course, Stepping. City Cast lead producer Simone Alicea, a former dancer herself, wondered when and how Stepping entered the dance vernacular. Last year, we talked to Kiana Moore who comes from a family of Stepping legends, and she gives Simone a lesson. 

Some news: Check out the city’s cooling resources as temps surge this week.
