Levels for This Workshop
Lindy Hop Intermediate
You know the basics, and you have been going to weekly classes and dancing regularly for about 6-12 months. You feel very comfortable with the Swing Out, Lindy Circle and Charleston, can dance socially with partners of various levels and you want to work on improving your lead and follow. You're proficient and confident with your basics and you're able to take on technical information and apply it within the lesson. You've discovered that you like Lindy Hop and you want to get better.
Lindy Hop Intermediate - Advanced
You know more than the basics, and you have been going to weekly classes and dancing regularly for about 12-18 months. The floor, partner, and music are all your friends, and you can combine them with ease. You are able to swing out with confidence. Dancing to slow as well as very fast music doesn't scare you, and you will welcome some complicated moves, as well as fine-tuning your dancing. You’re confident that you understand how to lead and follow and you aren’t afraid to try things out. You would dance socially with anyone of any standard to both slow and quick tempos.
Lindy Hop Advanced
The teaching pace is much quicker and there is an expectation of at least 18 months' experience of regular classes as well as weekend workshops, swing camps, exchanges etc. Expect to get a lot of in-depth technique thrown in.
