It also highlights the importance of frame, lead/follow skills and listening to the music. There are two different Level 1 sets you need to complete before moving to Level 2; 6-count & 8-count. However, most people opt to take at least 3 sets of Level 1 classes before they are confident moving up! Level 2 (Intermediate) Lindy Hop This class is focused on reinforcing the basics from Beginner Lindy Hop, providing exposure to some of the more common moves led in social lindy hop and providing a foundation for improvisation. Level 3 (Intermediate +) Lindy Hop This class is focused on more complex moves, more lead/follow instruction and improvisation. You will be invited to join this class when your dancing has reached the appropriate level. Balboa This smooth dance style was developed on crowded dance floors and is great for faster music. Lessons will focus on Bal-swing, a combination of lindy hop and pure balboa. Medley Class Our Medley Classes focus on different styles of swing dancing to Lindy Hop, and are open to everyone from beginners to advanced dancers. In future sets we'll be teaching styles such as partner charlestons, solo charlestons, blues, and collegiate shag, which are all fantastic dances to add to your repetoire! -------------------------------------------- PRIVATE LESSONS We can teach you or a small group privately at any level. We charge from $40 per hour per teacher. Talk to one of the teachers or email us for more info.
