1.00pm – 2.30pm: Big Apple (a dance made up of individual jazz steps, performed in a circle, called by a leader. Lennart will be our leader. Obey)

Levels

There will be three levels for the lindy hop classes.

Beginners level – taught by Tom and Cicci, this level is ideal for people who have either never learnt lindy hop before, or who have been to a few classes, and want to consolidate the basics. Tom and Cicci will look after you for the whole day, and by the end, you’ll have a good understanding of what lindy hop is, and a few moves under your belt to enable you to dance the night away.

The other two levels – will be grouped according to the experience of people who register for the weekend. When you register, give a brief description of your lindy hop experience, which will enable us to place you in the appropriate group. In these groups, you will have one session with Hasse and Marie, and one session with Lennart.

The Boogie Woogie and Big Apple classes are open to all!
