Have you been to a few of our beginner lessons and are hoping to consolidate what you’ve learned there? Are you completely new to Lindy Hop and looking to set some solid foundations? In either case, our February lesson series is for you!In this three week progressive beginner series, we will introduce you to the foundations of Lindy Hop as they likely evolved in Harlem in the 1920s & 30s. We will teach you a variety of Lindy Hop footwork patterns and shapes, emphasizing their historical and cultural contexts by spotlighting different influential Lindy Hop dancers and Jazz musicians and providing original footage to accompany the class. We will focus on learning through play and observation, with the goal of preparing you for our intermediate level progressive lessons and setting you up to delve into Lindy Hop on the social dance floor! COST:
