An intense course to maximize both fun and learning!
GROUPS & LEVELSLindy Hop, level 1 - "Get in the Groove"
These classes are designed to fit both lower levels AND higher levels, all the way up to advanced dancers that want to fine tune their technique and basic framework of Lindy Hop - it is all about the fundamentals! This level also includes all Solo Jazz classes and is not suitable for complete Lindy Hop beginners. Lindy Hop, level 2 - "Let Loose" In these classes we expect you to have at least a few years of Lindy Hop experience. You are used to dance with rhythmical footwork variations and you manage both lower tempos as well as pretty up tempo songs. This level also includes all Solo Jazz classes. Lindy Hop, "The Whole Shebang" (level 1 + 2) This is a full weekend package and fits anyone that qualify for the higher level course. Within the "Whole Shebang" workshop you will get to fine tune your fundamentals to then make it spark and shine like a diamond! "Jazz it up" - Solo Jazz (all levels) We will work with the groove, the move and to refine the movements in you jazz steps and also give you new steps and combinations that you can use both within Lindy Hop and standalone.
