Lindy Workshops Saturday, June 20th

We ask that everyone arrive early for the workshops as we will start on time. If you are late for the Lindy Hop workshop you will have a difficult time catching up to the group.

9:00-12:00 Beginning Lindy Hop

You will learn the basic swing-out, frame, footwork and a couple moves. This workshop will be very intense so be prepared to learn. Wear tennis shoes or dance shoes and comfortable clothes.

1:30- 4:30 Intermediate Lindy Hop

Intermediate workshop will have some review of the swing-out and footsteps, but most of the workshop will be focused on different moves and performing them properly. This workshop is for those who already know the basic swing-out and have been dancing the Lindy Hop for a while.
