This class is designed for dancers of any experience level. We’ll explore the fun of linear and rounded movements, teaching you how to transition smoothly and add some flair to your steps. This class will offer a blend of fun and learning to give your Lindy a fresh spin!

This is all about honing your floorcraft and navigation skills. You’ll learn techniques for avoiding collisions and how to glide seamlessly through the crowd, no matter how packed the dance floor is. Recommended for dancers who are already comfortable with basic 6 and 8 count movements.

Go with the Flow

We’ll focus on the art of continuous motion, and refining how one movement can naturally fuel the next, creating a seamless flow of energy throughout your dance.

Dips and Tricks:

All levels, you do not need a partner

Let’s get fancy, but in a fun kinda safe way! We will be teaching you easy but flashy tricks to add into your dancing. Plus, if you’ve ever been stuck on how to end a dance or hit a break with a nice dip, we will be teaching a few of those as well. 

No partner necessary, we will rotate. But if you feel comfortable staying with a partner you came with, there is no obligation to rotate.

Vintage Clips:

Intermediate and up

We geek out on the history of all things Swing. So this class will be focused on popular moves from movies, such as “Day at the Races” featuring Whitey’s Lindy Hoppers.

Teaching you how to incorporate them socially but also for choreographed pieces.

Must be comfortable with tuck turns, swing outs, and side by side Charleston

1950s Jive/Rock n’ Roll:
