Beginner Swing/
Intro to Lindy Hop Level 1b For those who are brand new to Swing dancing, this is the place to start! Also ideal for those with some experience who would like to brush up on skills and build a repertoire of fun moves. Six count basics will be covered along with a different selection of steps each session. There are 7 different sessions at this level designed to provide a good base for social dancing. Level 1 classes may be taken in any order. It is recommended that students stay at this level long enough to feel very comfortable with the material taught before moving to Level 2. Discount after 2 sessions. No experience or partner required.
5:50–6:50pm
Lindy Hop Level 2g
Level 2 focuses on the core moves of Lindy Hop, including a mix of 8 and 6 count basics. Emphasis is on technique, partner connection, musicality and building skills. No previous Lindy Hop experience required, although must competently social dance any style of triple-step Swing. There are 8 different sessions at this level which continually change over time and can be taken in any order. Each session includes classic Charleston and newer variations, all with a touch of flash! Discount after 2 sessions. No partner required.
7:00–8:00pm
Jazzing up your Lindy Hop
As Lindy Hoppers, we tend to also learn a lot of Jazz steps which are great to dance solo, but also incorporate nicely into our partner dancing. Jazz steps are an excellent way to work on varying the rhythm, musicality, as well as adding some new variety into your dancing. If you like to play with footwork, whether in a partner move or when you have a little space for your own individuality, this will be a great class for you! Join us for this fun and challenging class. For intermediate to higher up Lindy Hop dancers, no partner required.
