Expired Intro to Lindy Hop 3 Week Mini-Course

We're sorry, but all tickets sales have ended because the event is expired.

What to Expect From the 3 Week Lindy Hop Mini-Course

Lindy Hop is often thought of as the original swing dance. We use some parts of lindy hop for SwingJive, but this mini-course will give you a feel of a more authentic swing dance that originated in the 1920s. Lindy hop footwork is more demanding as it flows between Charleston, 6 beat rhythm and 8 beat rhythm.

This mini-course will show you how to dance a simple lindy hop routine. On the way to building your routine, you will learn:

  • how to do a basic lindy Charleston
  • how to do triple steps
  • how to use triple steps in Charleston to create anĀ 8 beat rhythm
  • how to do a swing out, which is the core move in lindy hop
  • how to integrate your swing out and Charleston with a 6 beat rhythm move

Who Can Take Part in the 3 Week Lindy Hop Mini-Course

This course is open to everybody who books with a partner and dances with them throughout the mini-course.

Although no previous experience is required, this mini-course would suit people who have some previous dance experience. Anybody who has never danced before should consider our Absolute Beginners SwingJive Course first.
