1. Beginner-Intermediate Lindy Hop: Technique and Moves
Wednesdays, 8-930pm, $240/person (on going, swing by anytime but class is usually full so do register early!)
In this course, the focus will be learning how to lead and follow comfortably outside of set rhythms, and get comfortable just moving. The idea is to bring back the connection between partners instead of thinking of set routines and moves. We will also be learning some of Frankie Manning's steps in this course. You must have some knowledge of Lindy Hop but no partner needed to join the course
