Variations Aplenty!
It is said that variety’s the spice of life, and that’s true for dancing as well! We’ll take fundamental moves such as swing outs, underarm turn, Texas Tommy and passes, adding twists and turns to create something new and unexpected. Included will be both classic and new footwork variations for swing outs. If you like to work on rhythm variations and new ways to change up your Lindy Hop, this will be a great class for you!
