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.

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.

Have Fun, Get Active, Be Sociable!
The Absolute Beginners SwingJive Course is designed for you if you have never done any jive or swing dance before. In fact, most new starters have never done any kind of dance class at all. These courses are a perfect starting point for a weekly adult, evening partner dance class and they lead into an exciting, fun and sociable new world. You’ll stay with the partner you bring throughout the course.
See What Others Had To Say…
“Hi, Just wanted to say how much my husband and I enjoyed our first dance session last night and what a fun night we had and to thank you.” Angela, Farnham
“Bob and Bridgette are very good and patient teachers. They made the course fun and gave lots of encouragement. We thought the method of teaching, concentrating on and perfecting one move at a time, worked.” Anita & Mike, Farnborough
“The best thing I ever did was to learn to swing jive, I just love it. Thank you for all the great courses, keep up the good work.” Denise, Fareham
Book Your Free Trial Space in Advance with a Dance Partner
When joining our fixed-partner classes, please ensure you book and attend with a dance partner. We set a 2-person minimum booking for our fixed-partner courses so please book both places at the same time using our online booking system. Simply book your spaces on our free trial class at the class that suits you best. Our system will send a registration email to confirm the venue, date and time details – please check your spam filter if these don’t arrive in your inbox within an hour of booking.
Some people are lucky enough to find a dance partner easily. For those without an obvious dance partner, asking within their own network of friends, family, colleagues, and neighbours can reveal somebody who is interested to give the class a go.
Don’t have a partner? You can also look out for dedicated partner rotation courses, where you can book on your own.
Open To All Adult Ages and Levels of Fitness
As long as you can walk and you are 18 or over you should be able to take part. The beauty of this style of dancing is that you can push yourself to whatever energy level you are comfortable with. Dancing is a great form of exercise, you’ll be having so much fun that you won’t notice all those calories you are burning!

Who Typically Attends Venue-Based Classes?
Age ranges vary wildly, from our minimum of 18*-80. Our ‘Fixed Partner’ classes are particularly popular with couples keen to share a hobby and spend quality time together. This covers both young professionals as well as couples rebuilding a fun social life, perhaps after years of child-rearing. We also see lots of mother/daughter, sister/sister, girl/girl, boy/boy & girl/boy friend pairings.
Often reluctant husbands are dragged along by enthusiastic wives, yet by the end of the free trial, it is the gents who can’t wait to sign up for the course.
Limited Spaces at Venue-Based Classes… or Learn Online!
Venue-based learning is supported by free access to the same online course, which is pre-recorded and available on-demand. If venue-based learning doesn’t suit you, then join our online school to learn exactly the same content anywhere in the world!

If you would like to get a head start before attending a trial, you can take our online free trial, which contains the same content, or even book a private lesson first before your trial class, either in-person or online!

Paying For The Course
Most people pay for the full course directly at the end of the beginners’ trial session. Enjoy a discounted price if you pay on or before the night of your trial. If you wait until the following day or week the full price is charged.
If you are committed to joining the course regardless of the free trial on the first week you can pay in advance via the relevant course booking page. Payment secures your place on the course.
Extra Lessons Free!
All paying participants can benefit from free access to the full course online, free catch-up lessons at alternative venues and a 12-month free repeat guarantee, meaning you have a massive range of opportunities to learn the content on our Absolute Beginners course.
Can’t Make The Free Trial?
As location-based courses run over a set 10-week period, the free trial evening is one specific date each term for each beginner’s course. If you are unable to attend that date then other options could be open to you:
- Free trials may be offered for the 2nd or 3rd week. Tickets would only be made available after the previous week’s lesson, and subject to availability.
- Take an online, on-demand free trial – simply click on this link and take a trial on-demand. You’ll still be able to book and pay the course fee for classes at your local venue. Make sure you return back to THIS PAGE to book for your local venue, as paying for the online-only course won’t register you at a local venue.
- Take a free trial at an alternative venue – book your free trial at the alternative venue and notify us of the switch when paying. A full list of locations with free trials can be found on this link.
- Book the course without taking a free trial – use the “Course Fee” ticket option when booking your preferred course
- Wait for a future course – click here to join our mailing list for notifications
Joining Late
After the free trial, you’ll need to pay the course fee before attending again. You can pay to join late and catch up with our online course, but the standard course fee at your venue applies regardless of how many sessions you attend in total. We recommend that you take our online free trial if you miss the free trial at your local venue.
What To Expect…
What to Expect on Free Trial Day
Arrive just before the advertised start time for your lesson so the teachers can greet you. Groups are typically between 12 and 30 people, everybody is an absolute beginner so everybody will be experiencing similar nerves and excitement. Once it’s time to start we do a gentle warm-up and teach a couple of simple moves which you can dance on a loop. Before the end of the session, the teachers will demonstrate all the moves coming up on the course.
See What You Can Learn on The Full 10-Week Course…
Building Your Abilities Week-By-Week
The Absolute Beginners SwingJive Course continues on the same day, time, and place for 9 further one-hour sessions after the free trial week. The course builds week by week, recapping the move from the previous lesson as part of the standard format, and drawing on moves from earlier in the term as you start to build sequences.
For this reason, we don’t want any participants to get left behind, so we are looking for people who can commit to attending most weeks (or can catch up via online learning). This ensures a higher quality learning experience for the whole group. For this reason, we only accept payment for the full course. Most customers understand the benefit of attending every week and pre-payment is a great incentive.
Each evening we run 2 or 3 x 1-hour classes. There is normally a 15-minute handover between classes. During this interval, (either before or after your lesson) we will leave music running, you are welcome to practice and chat with the team.
You’ll Love The Music
You’ll recognise most of the music we play. At the beginner level, we use big songs from big artists of the swing and rock’n’roll eras of the 1940s, 50s and 60s.
As you progress to higher levels we’ll introduce you to more amazing music for dancing, some you may not have heard before! This includes original music from current jive, swing and rock’n’roll bands and less well-known retro music too.
Check out some of the typical music we use on this Spotify playlist below!
Beyond Absolute Beginners
Once you’ve completed the Absolute Beginner SwingJive Course, you’ll be able to follow on to the natural continuation course, either Intermediate Yellow or Intermediate Green, which can be taken in either order.
Teachers will demonstrate moves for the continuation course, or you can view them on this link. There is a series of 9 x 10-week courses, progressing along a pathway that you can follow, explained on this link.
Swingeasy, our weekly PAYG class and dance format, is a great sociable alternative too.
Beyond these courses, you can find new challenges via workshops and mini-courses, and have fun at our live band events. Swinging Balls are open to all. Our celebrated Swinging Balls have been running for over 20 years. They have built a splendid reputation, attracting the UK’s finest jive and swing bands along with huge attendances.
Terms & Conditions
By booking a course we understand that you accept our terms and conditions, which can be viewed on this link. Terms and conditions cover issues such as payments and refunds, class sizes, arranging dance partners, and health and safety.
It also makes clear that our classes are for your enjoyment only, and there are no other permissions, for example, to promote, advertise, sell or gather data for anything, whether for profit or not.

Have Fun, Get Active, Be Sociable!
The Absolute Beginners SwingJive Course is designed for you if you have never done any jive or swing dance before. In fact, most new starters have never done any kind of dance class at all. These courses are a perfect starting point for a weekly adult, evening partner dance class and they lead into an exciting, fun and sociable new world. You’ll stay with the partner you bring throughout the course.
See What Others Had To Say…
“Hi, Just wanted to say how much my husband and I enjoyed our first dance session last night and what a fun night we had and to thank you.” Angela, Farnham
“Bob and Bridgette are very good and patient teachers. They made the course fun and gave lots of encouragement. We thought the method of teaching, concentrating on and perfecting one move at a time, worked.” Anita & Mike, Farnborough
“The best thing I ever did was to learn to swing jive, I just love it. Thank you for all the great courses, keep up the good work.” Denise, Fareham
Book Your Free Trial Space in Advance with a Dance Partner
When joining our fixed-partner classes, please ensure you book and attend with a dance partner. We set a 2-person minimum booking for our fixed-partner courses so please book both places at the same time using our online booking system. Simply book your spaces on our free trial class at the class that suits you best. Our system will send a registration email to confirm the venue, date and time details – please check your spam filter if these don’t arrive in your inbox within an hour of booking.
Some people are lucky enough to find a dance partner easily. For those without an obvious dance partner, asking within their own network of friends, family, colleagues, and neighbours can reveal somebody who is interested to give the class a go.
Don’t have a partner? You can also look out for dedicated partner rotation courses, where you can book on your own.
Open To All Adult Ages and Levels of Fitness
As long as you can walk and you are 18 or over you should be able to take part. The beauty of this style of dancing is that you can push yourself to whatever energy level you are comfortable with. Dancing is a great form of exercise, you’ll be having so much fun that you won’t notice all those calories you are burning!

Who Typically Attends Venue-Based Classes?
Age ranges vary wildly, from our minimum of 18*-80. Our ‘Fixed Partner’ classes are particularly popular with couples keen to share a hobby and spend quality time together. This covers both young professionals as well as couples rebuilding a fun social life, perhaps after years of child-rearing. We also see lots of mother/daughter, sister/sister, girl/girl, boy/boy & girl/boy friend pairings.
Often reluctant husbands are dragged along by enthusiastic wives, yet by the end of the free trial, it is the gents who can’t wait to sign up for the course.
Limited Spaces at Venue-Based Classes… or Learn Online!
Venue-based learning is supported by free access to the same online course, which is pre-recorded and available on-demand. If venue-based learning doesn’t suit you, then join our online school to learn exactly the same content anywhere in the world!

Paying For The Course
Most people pay for the full course directly at the end of the beginners’ trial session. Enjoy a discounted price if you pay on or before the night of your trial. If you wait until the following day or week the full price is charged.
If you are committed to joining the course regardless of the free trial on the first week you can pay in advance via the relevant course booking page. Payment secures your place on the course.
Extra Lessons Free!
All paying participants can benefit from free access to the full course online, free catch-up lessons at alternative venues and a 12-month free repeat guarantee, meaning you have a massive range of opportunities to learn the content on our Absolute Beginners course.
Can’t Make The Free Trial?
As location-based courses run over a set 10-week period, the free trial evening is one specific date each term for each beginner’s course. If you are unable to attend that date then other options could be open to you:
- Free trials may be offered for the 2nd or 3rd week. Tickets would only be made available after the previous week’s lesson, and subject to availability.
- Take an online, on-demand free trial – simply click on this link and take a trial on-demand. You’ll still be able to book and pay the course fee for classes at your local venue. Make sure you return back to THIS PAGE to book for your local venue, as paying for the online-only course won’t register you at a local venue.
- Take a free trial at an alternative venue – book your free trial at the alternative venue and notify us of the switch when paying. A full list of locations with free trials can be found on this link.
- Book the course without taking a free trial – use the “Course Fee” ticket option when booking your preferred course
- Wait for a future course – click here to join our mailing list for notifications
Joining Late
After the free trial, you’ll need to pay the course fee before attending again. You can pay to join late and catch up with our online course, but the standard course fee at your venue applies regardless of how many sessions you attend in total. We recommend that you take our online free trial if you miss the free trial at your local venue.
What To Expect…
What to Expect on Free Trial Day
Arrive just before the advertised start time for your lesson so the teachers can greet you. Groups are typically between 12 and 30 people, everybody is an absolute beginner so everybody will be experiencing similar nerves and excitement. Once it’s time to start we do a gentle warm-up and teach a couple of simple moves which you can dance on a loop. Before the end of the session, the teachers will demonstrate all the moves coming up on the course.
See What You Can Learn on The Full 10-Week Course…
Building Your Abilities Week-By-Week
The Absolute Beginners SwingJive Course continues on the same day, time, and place for 9 further one-hour sessions after the free trial week. The course builds week by week, recapping the move from the previous lesson as part of the standard format, and drawing on moves from earlier in the term as you start to build sequences.
For this reason, we don’t want any participants to get left behind, so we are looking for people who can commit to attending most weeks (or can catch up via online learning). This ensures a higher quality learning experience for the whole group. For this reason, we only accept payment for the full course. Most customers understand the benefit of attending every week and pre-payment is a great incentive.
Each evening we run 2 or 3 x 1-hour classes. There is normally a 15-minute handover between classes. During this interval, (either before or after your lesson) we will leave music running, you are welcome to practice and chat with the team.
You’ll Love The Music
You’ll recognise most of the music we play. At the beginner level, we use big songs from big artists of the swing and rock’n’roll eras of the 1940s, 50s and 60s.
As you progress to higher levels we’ll introduce you to more amazing music for dancing, some you may not have heard before! This includes original music from current jive, swing and rock’n’roll bands and less well-known retro music too.
Check out some of the typical music we use on this Spotify playlist below!
Beyond Absolute Beginners
Once you’ve completed the Absolute Beginner SwingJive Course, you’ll be able to follow on to the natural continuation course, either Intermediate Yellow or Intermediate Green, which can be taken in either order.
Teachers will demonstrate moves for the continuation course, or you can view them on this link. There is a series of 9 x 10-week courses, progressing along a pathway that you can follow, explained on this link.
Swingeasy, our weekly PAYG class and dance format, is a great sociable alternative too.
Beyond these courses, you can find new challenges via workshops and mini-courses, and have fun at our live band events. Swinging Balls are open to all. Our celebrated Swinging Balls have been running for over 20 years. They have built a splendid reputation, attracting the UK’s finest jive and swing bands along with huge attendances.

- Wait for a future course – click here to join our mailing list for notifications
Joining Late
After the free trial, you’ll need to pay the course fee before attending again. You can pay to join late and catch up with our online course, but the standard course fee at your venue applies regardless of how many sessions you attend in total. We recommend that you take our online free trial if you miss the free trial at your local venue.
What To Expect…
What to Expect on Free Trial Day
Arrive just before the advertised start time for your lesson so the teachers can greet you. Groups are typically between 12 and 30 people, everybody is an absolute beginner so everybody will be experiencing similar nerves and excitement. Once it’s time to start we do a gentle warm-up and teach a couple of simple moves which you can dance on a loop. Before the end of the session, the teachers will demonstrate all the moves coming up on the course.
See What You Can Learn on The Full 10-Week Course…
Building Your Abilities Week-By-Week
The Absolute Beginners SwingJive Course continues on the same day, time, and place for 9 further one-hour sessions after the free trial week. The course builds week by week, recapping the move from the previous lesson as part of the standard format, and drawing on moves from earlier in the term as you start to build sequences.
For this reason, we don’t want any participants to get left behind, so we are looking for people who can commit to attending most weeks (or can catch up via online learning). This ensures a higher quality learning experience for the whole group. For this reason, we only accept payment for the full course. Most customers understand the benefit of attending every week and pre-payment is a great incentive.
Each evening we run 2 or 3 x 1-hour classes. There is normally a 15-minute handover between classes. During this interval, (either before or after your lesson) we will leave music running, you are welcome to practice and chat with the team.
You’ll Love The Music
You’ll recognise most of the music we play. At the beginner level, we use big songs from big artists of the swing and rock’n’roll eras of the 1940s, 50s and 60s.
As you progress to higher levels we’ll introduce you to more amazing music for dancing, some you may not have heard before! This includes original music from current jive, swing and rock’n’roll bands and less well-known retro music too.
Check out some of the typical music we use on this Spotify playlist below!
Beyond Absolute Beginners
Once you’ve completed the Absolute Beginner SwingJive Course, you’ll be able to follow on to the natural continuation course, either Intermediate Yellow or Intermediate Green, which can be taken in either order.
Swingeasy, our weekly PAYG class and dance format, is a great sociable alternative too.
Beyond these courses, you can find new challenges via workshops and mini-courses, and have fun at our live band events. Swinging Balls are open to all. Our celebrated Swinging Balls have been running for over 20 years. They have built a splendid reputation, attracting the UK’s finest jive and swing bands along with huge attendances.

Whether you attend one of our venue-based classes, or trial online, you should be able to dance the following moves by the end of our free trial class:
Leader & Follower Roles
In partner dance styles, every duo consists of two roles working together: the leader and the follower. For a visual illustration, watch the video above, where Brooke (on the left) leads, while Debbie (on the right) follows:
Tickets & Lead/Follow Roles
- A similar number of leaders and followers make the class enjoyable for everybody.
- To keep Lead/Follow roles evenly distributed, "Follower" tickets are only offered when there are enough leaders, and vice-versa.
- "Open" tickets are always available, where you might be requested to lead or follow, contributing to a balanced class experience.

Book Your Free Trial Space in Advance
Simply book your spaces on our free trial class at the class that suits you best. Our system will send a registration email to confirm the venue, date and time details - please check your spam filter if these don't arrive in your inbox within an hour of booking.
You can book this course with or without a dance partner. On the 'Partner Rotation' courses, teachers will organise the room so that dancers rotate partners at regular intervals for participants, which makes it a great opportunity to socialise. Partner rotation courses are open to any number of participants.
Although we may offer "lead" or "follow" tickets that specify your role, anybody booking an "open" ticket could be asked to dance either role.
Want to stay with your dance partner throughout? You can also lookout for our 'Fixed Partner' courses, where you book with your partner and stay with them for the duration of the course.
Who Typically Attends Venue-Based Classes?
Our 'Partner Rotation' classes are perfect for anyone who wants to experience the joy of dance, regardless of who you come with. Whether you're flying solo, or bringing a group of friends, you can still join the fun!
Solo Participants: Meet new people in a supportive environment.
Groups: Bond with your friends and family while learning a new skill together.
Couples (who want to dance with others): Share a hobby and meet new people.
Limited Spaces at Venue-Based Classes... or Learn Online!
Venue-based learning is supported by free access to the same online course, which is pre-recorded and available on-demand. If venue-based learning doesn't suit you, then join our online school to learn exactly the same content anywhere in the world!

The Absolute Beginners SwingJive Course is designed for you if you have never done any jive or swing dance before. In fact, most new starters have never done any kind of dance class at all. These courses are a perfect starting point for a weekly adult, evening partner dance class and they lead into an exciting, fun and sociable new world. You’ll stay with the partner you bring throughout the course.
See What Others Had To Say…
“Hi, Just wanted to say how much my husband and I enjoyed our first dance session last night and what a fun night we had and to thank you.” Angela, Farnham
“Bob and Bridgette are very good and patient teachers. They made the course fun and gave lots of encouragement. We thought the method of teaching, concentrating on and perfecting one move at a time, worked.” Anita & Mike, Farnborough
“The best thing I ever did was to learn to swing jive, I just love it. Thank you for all the great courses, keep up the good work.” Denise, Fareham
Book Your Free Trial Space in Advance with a Dance Partner
When joining our fixed-partner classes, please ensure you book and attend with a dance partner. We set a 2-person minimum booking for our fixed-partner courses so please book both places at the same time using our online booking system. Simply book your spaces on our free trial class at the class that suits you best. Our system will send a registration email to confirm the venue, date and time details – please check your spam filter if these don’t arrive in your inbox within an hour of booking.
Some people are lucky enough to find a dance partner easily. For those without an obvious dance partner, asking within their own network of friends, family, colleagues, and neighbours can reveal somebody who is interested to give the class a go.
Don’t have a partner? You can also look out for dedicated partner rotation courses, where you can book on your own.
Open To All Adult Ages and Levels of Fitness
As long as you can walk and you are 18 or over you should be able to take part. The beauty of this style of dancing is that you can push yourself to whatever energy level you are comfortable with. Dancing is a great form of exercise, you’ll be having so much fun that you won’t notice all those calories you are burning!

Who Typically Attends Venue-Based Classes?
Age ranges vary wildly, from our minimum of 18*-80. Our ‘Fixed Partner’ classes are particularly popular with couples keen to share a hobby and spend quality time together. This covers both young professionals as well as couples rebuilding a fun social life, perhaps after years of child-rearing. We also see lots of mother/daughter, sister/sister, girl/girl, boy/boy & girl/boy friend pairings.
Often reluctant husbands are dragged along by enthusiastic wives, yet by the end of the free trial, it is the gents who can’t wait to sign up for the course.

If you are committed to joining the course regardless of the free trial on the first week you can pay in advance via the relevant course booking page. Payment secures your place on the course.
Extra Lessons Free!
All paying participants can benefit from free access to the full course online, free catch-up lessons at alternative venues and a 12-month free repeat guarantee, meaning you have a massive range of opportunities to learn the content on our Absolute Beginners course.
Can’t Make The Free Trial?
As location-based courses run over a set 10-week period, the free trial evening is one specific date each term for each beginner’s course. If you are unable to attend that date then other options could be open to you:
- Free trials may be offered for the 2nd or 3rd week. Tickets would only be made available after the previous week’s lesson, and subject to availability.
- Take an online, on-demand free trial – simply click on this link and take a trial on-demand. You’ll still be able to book and pay the course fee for classes at your local venue. Make sure you return back to THIS PAGE to book for your local venue, as paying for the online-only course won’t register you at a local venue.
- Take a free trial at an alternative venue – book your free trial at the alternative venue and notify us of the switch when paying. A full list of locations with free trials can be found on this link.
- Book the course without taking a free trial – use the “Course Fee” ticket option when booking your preferred course
- Wait for a future course – click here to join our mailing list for notifications
Joining Late
After the free trial, you’ll need to pay the course fee before attending again. You can pay to join late and catch up with our online course, but the standard course fee at your venue applies regardless of how many sessions you attend in total. We recommend that you take our online free trial if you miss the free trial at your local venue.

All courses have a limited number of participants due to hall size, and places are allocated on a first come first served basis.
Courses that don’t achieve minimum numbers by the early booking rate deadline are at risk of being cancelled.
When To Join Advanced SwingJive Courses
The Advanced SwingJive level is ideal if you have completed all THREE 10-week Inters Plus SwingJive courses, “Orange”, “Purple” and “Blue” in our series of SwingJive courses.
Dancers with experience that have not been following our courses should only consider this level if they are already comfortable with basic Charleston and the 6-beat rhythm.
The new Advanced level features 3 x 10-week courses containing the most challenging content on our regular courses. Each lesson features a challenging routine containing a new move. You’ll also recap moves learned earlier on the same course and from Intermediate or Inters Plus levels. The remainder of each session is dedicated to freestyle practice, with our team on hand to offer personalised guidance.
Just like at the Inters Plus level, there are three courses and each course contains different content. The three courses rotate during the year, they are colour coded as follows:
- Violet in the Autumn term every year
- Teal in the Spring term every year
- Magenta in the Summer Term every year
That’s right, we’ve had to dig deep in our pencil case to find some more colours!
As these three Advanced level courses are at the same level of difficulty, they can be taken in any order. That is, it doesn’t matter which term of the year you start learning at the Advanced level.
Please book and pay before the first lesson.
Take a Look at the Moves on the Course…
What to Expect from 10-Week Advanced SwingJive Courses
Each Advanced SwingJive Course builds on what you have learned at the lower levels. In particular, the Advanced SwingJive courses use the foundations of basic Charleston and 6-beat rhythm to bring you into the world of lindy hop.
The weekly format will see a routine at the start of the session followed by freestyle practice time. Just like in other courses, we repeat the new move from the previous lesson and a move from an earlier course, alongside the new move of the week. This means you are always enjoying a fresh move while reinforcing content learned in the past.
You will learn the Tandem Charleston, triple steps and the eight-beat rhythm, learning how to apply these appropriately and integrate them with your existing dancing. You’ll be learning core lindy hop moves such as the swing out. You can consider yourself a lindy hopper after having completed your Advanced level courses.

Just like at the Inters Plus level, there are three courses and each course contains different content. The three courses rotate during the year, they are colour coded as follows:
- Violet in the Autumn term every year
- Teal in the Spring term every year
- Magenta in the Summer Term every year
That’s right, we’ve had to dig deep in our pencil case to find some more colours!
As these three Advanced level courses are at the same level of difficulty, they can be taken in any order. That is, it doesn’t matter which term of the year you start learning at the Advanced level.
Please book and pay before the first lesson.

What to Expect from 10-Week Advanced SwingJive Courses
Each Advanced SwingJive Course builds on what you have learned at the lower levels. In particular, the Advanced SwingJive courses use the foundations of basic Charleston and 6-beat rhythm to bring you into the world of lindy hop.
The weekly format will see a routine at the start of the session followed by freestyle practice time. Just like in other courses, we repeat the new move from the previous lesson and a move from an earlier course, alongside the new move of the week. This means you are always enjoying a fresh move while reinforcing content learned in the past.
You will learn the Tandem Charleston, triple steps and the eight-beat rhythm, learning how to apply these appropriately and integrate them with your existing dancing. You’ll be learning core lindy hop moves such as the swing out. You can consider yourself a lindy hopper after having completed your Advanced level courses.

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!
