Take your Lindy Hop to the next level with our Lindy 2 Series Class. This class is designed for anyone who has taken our Lindy Series class or who knows the Lindy 8 count basic and the Lindy Circle. You don’t have to be great at either one (that’s what Lindy 2 will do for you), you just have to know them. Learn new moves that will tighten up your connection and expand your move repertoire. Plus, learn how to dance to faster music without killing yourself (or your partner)!
If you’ve never dance before and want to learn, the Swing Dance Series Class is for you! Both classes start on April 11th with Lindy 2 at 2:30pm – 4pm and Swing Dance following from 4pm – 5:30pm. Each class has an hour of group instruction followed by a 30 min. practice period where we go around and help you one on one

The first two series classes of the new year are scheduled and open for registration! Starting in January 2010, we will be offering Charleston and the Swing Dance Class. Both classes can be taken with no previous dance experience needed. The swing dance series class is a great introduction to swing dancing as it covers all the essentials and foundation moves to get you out on the dance floor having fun! Charleston is a great dance to know for when the music is on the faster side and you don’t want to wear yourself out. We’ll also show you how to blend Charleston into whatever style of swing you dance.
Keep these classes in mind if you are looking for an out-of-the-ordinary Christmas gift this year for someone special, friends, or family.
