6:30–7:30pm Frankie Doo!

You may already know or have heard of Tranky Doo, which made a resurgence on the Lindy scene several years ago. The version we first learned as beginner Lindy Hoppers was quite different and is now referred to as the Frankie Doo, choreographed by Frankie Manning. Both versions start out similarly, and then quickly go their own way. The Frankie Doo fits nicely into the structure of swing songs and is loaded with authentic Jazz moves, some you may be familiar with, and some maybe not. We enjoyed teaching it earlier this year and would love to have more Frankie Doers out there! Join us to learn Frankie style! All levels are welcome to attend.

7:30–7:50pm Stay after class for practice and question time!
7:50–8:50pm Jazzing Up Your Lindy Hop

As Lindy Hoppers, we learn a lot of solo Jazz steps which also incorporate nicely into partner dancing. They are an excellent way to work on varying rhythm, musicality, as well as adding new variety. If you like to play with footwork, whether in partner moves or when having a little space for your own individuality, this will be a great class for you! Join us for a fun and challenging class. For intermediate to advanced Lindy Hop dancers, no partner required.

9:00pm Collegiate Shag routine practice time!
