Autumn 2024 CLASSES

Lindy Hop beginners

An intro to swing dancing in 8 weeks. 
Lindy Hop is a partnered dance that originated from the African-American community in Harlem, New York in the 1920’s/30s. It is a lively energetic dance that is closely connected to jazz music popular at this time. 
This course is designed for total beginners, although repeat students who want to polish their basics or learn the opposite role are more than welcome! We will start with the basic steps and teach you everything you need to know. 
We rotate partners in class – this means you also can join the class if you don’t have a dance partner. To increase your chance of getting a spot in class you can register as ambi (either lead or follow). 

Start Date: 4.9.2024
Duration: 8 weeks
Time: Wednesdays, 19.00 – 20.00
Location: Fanfare Sint Servatius

Lindy Hop 2

Follow up to a beginner’s course, Lindy Hop 1 course or a previous Lindy Hop 2 course or the charleston course. Advance your swing dancing in 8 weeks! 
This course is designed for people who already know the basics of swing dancing, including 6- & 8-count, Lindy circle and basics of the Swing-out, maybe some Charleston. If you have taken some classes before and you have been social dancing, this course is for you! I will be different from the previous L2 courses, so everyone can join!
We rotate partners in class – this means you also can join the class if you don’t have a dance partner.      

We will have a moment to have a social dance and practice the moves you learned after class. This will be from 20.15 till 20.45, before the next class starts. Participants of the next class are also encouraged to join. Besides classes on Tuesdays, we have our regular social dance on Wednesdays from 20.30-22.30.
