Tuesday

With Christine Penman and Nancy Hitzig

Join Ben and Christine for a lesson or two in Swing Dancing. What is Swing Dancing? It’s a collection of dances from the 1920s-1940s including Lindy hop and Charleston. Read more about it here.

Classes

Level 1 – Absolute beginners class | 7pm – 8pm
These classes are for new dancers and there is no experience required. We go over the basics every week and then throw in some new moves to get you dancing in no time. This class is drop-in, so you don’t need to book in advance and you don’t need to bring a partner.

Level 1.5 – Improvers class | 8.15pm – 9.15pm
The super-cool extra class! We rotate through many crazy things in this class, and always have some slightly different part of swing to offer you. If you’re feeling comfortable with the beginners class, you’ll be fine in this one too, and if you are looking forward to joining Level 2 then this is the class for you. Also perfect for our Level 2 students who want to add a little something extra to their Lindy hop.

Level 2 – Intermediate class | 9.15pm – 10.15pm
This level presumes an understanding of the swing rhythms we teach in the Level 1 class: Side-by-side & Tandem Charleston, 6-beat and 8-beat Lindy Hop. If you are a Level 2 dancer but are rusty on a rhythm, just ask us for a refresher before class.
