When to Join Inters Plus SwingJive Courses

The Inters Plus level is ideal if you have been dancing with us for 3 or more terms. This should mean you have completed Absolute Beginners, Yellow Intermediate and Green Intermediate Courses.

We run THREE 10 week Inters Plus SwingJive courses, "Orange", "Purple" and "Blue". These can be taken in any order and they are designed to follow on from our Intermediate SwingJive courses, where you will have learned basic Charleston and 6 beat rhythms which are essential foundation steps for the Inters Plus level.

We rotate Inters Plus SwingJive courses from one term to the next, so the Purple course starts in January, the Blue course starts after Easter and the Orange Intermediate Plus course starts in the Autumn.

Take a Look at the Moves on the Course...

What to Expect from Inters Plus Courses

Each Inters Plus SwingJive Course builds on what you have learned at the lower levels.

This level gives you new techniques. You will learn tips for responsible social dancing. We add popular strolls so you can start dancing without a partner! Variations on the basic Charleston are lots of fun and there are new moves including the occasional flashy dip or lean.

We're always referring back to moves you have already learned so you'll never forget them. Every time we show you a new move we will draw on moves that you already know to create new sequences. This course shows you how to extend those old moves. It challenges you to think about linking moves in ways you haven't done before.

We still maintain the popular format and structure of the Absolute Beginners and Intermediate SwingJive Courses so if you enjoyed those courses, the Intermediate Plus level courses will be a joy to take too.

When Can You Access Your Online Course?

The accompanying online course, which is offered free with every Beginner, Intermediate and Inters Plus level SwingJive course booked at your local venue, will be available to access before the 2nd lesson of the term at your local venue.

Every email address provided with a registration on the course at the local venue will receive an email containing a link with a unique voucher code a few days after the first lesson of the term. The link will allow the recipient to enrol in the relevant course free of charge at our online school. The full online course is available on demand as soon as you have enrolled in it at our online school.

When to Take The Intermediate Courses


The Green and Yellow Intermediate courses can be taken in either order. They are designed to follow on from our Absolute Beginners SwingJive Course. It is best to complete both of the Intermediate courses before moving on to the Inters Plus level SwingJive courses. We alternate Intermediate Green & Yellow courses, if the current term offers one colour, expect the other colour to be available the following term.

An Intermediate course is normally the best option if you have been dancing with us for one or two terms. That is, you have just completed the Absolute Beginners Course only, or the beginner's course plus the other colour Intermediate Course.

Take a Look at the Moves on the Course...

What to Expect from Intermediate Courses


Each Intermediate Course contains a similar number of moves to the Absolute Beginners Jive Course. The format and structure continue in the same pattern too.

On the beginner's course, we keep the footwork simple. Most of the moves on the intermediate course have simple footwork too. However, we do add in new footwork rhythms. The six-beat rhythm is added early in each Intermediate course, as is the basic Charleston rhythm.

These new rhythms are great because they allow you to keep on dancing without having to keep on spinning all the time! Leaders can do a simple repeated rhythm and give themselves thinking time, followers get a rest from all the spins!

So if you loved the beginner's course you are sure to love the Intermediate SwingJive courses even more!

When Can You Access Your Online Course?


The accompanying online course, which is offered free with every Beginner, Intermediate and Inters Plus level SwingJive course booked at your local venue, will be available to access before the 2nd Lesson of the term at your local venue.

Meet Your Instructor: Brooke

BG Headshot

Many of you know Brooke from our popular online courses or have seen him leading the way at events. As co-founder of The Swing Dance Company, Brooke has over two decades of experience teaching thousands of people the joy of swing dance. He's passionate about helping dancers develop their skills in a fun, supportive environment and has a keen eye for identifying exactly what's needed to help you improve. Don't miss this rare chance for in-person coaching!

What to Expect in the Workshop

This intensive mini-course is split over two engaging 1-hour sessions.

  • Session 1: We'll kick off with a fun freestyle warm-up where Brooke can observe everyone's natural style. We'll work collaboratively, and then, based on his observations and your pre-submitted goals, you'll receive your first round of personalised feedback and guided practice.
  • Session 2: We'll dive deeper into refining those key areas. You'll work through specific drills and sequences designed to help you apply the feedback, smoothing out your technique and boosting your confidence, all with ongoing guidance from Brooke.

Although these sessions will mainly be danced with a partner you book with, there will be some changing of partners as an essential part of evaluating each person's technique.

Is This Swing Technique Tune-Up For You?

This workshop is perfect for:

  • Dancers comfortable with (at least) Intermediate level material from our courses.
  • Those wanting to refine their technique, not just learn new steps.
  • Dancers seeking personalised feedback to overcome specific challenges.
  • Anyone feeling 'stuck' and ready to push their dancing to the next level!
  • Lapsed students looking for a fresh challenge to jump back in!
