Class Level Descriptions
Level 1 : Beginners
You’ve never danced before and you have no knowledge or experience with anything to do with Lindy Hop. Within a single 7-week block, you’ll be introduced to the 8-beat and 6-beat footwork patterns, as well as the Charleston. Once you’ve been intoduced to these different footwork patterns and have completed a 7-week block, it’s time to move up to the level 2 class, but remember you can still take the level 1 class in the same night at no extra charge. Also, at the end of every level 1 class, we also do a 10-15 minute strolls lesson, which are funky jazz routines done in large groups.

Level 2 : Improvers
You are now considered an Advanced-Beginner. Here we’ll get a little more complicated by combining the different footwork patterns, such as doing the 8-beat and Charleston steps within a single song. We’ll also introduce you to the Tandem Charleston, and we’ll start to get a little more technical with your SwingOuts / LindyTurns!!!
Level 3 : Intermediates
Now you’re starting to become a Lindy Hopper! In this class, your Swing-Outs / Lindy-Turns will improve considerably, we’ll give you that extra challenge by teaching and expanding on specialised “moves”, focus on technique, and discuss more advanced topics such as musicality.
