Laugh, dance, get exercise, make friends! Come dance with Jean Elizabeth and Jake in a fun series of beginning swing classes!This series is appropriate for beginning level swing students with any amount of experience, whether you’re brand new or have been dancing for many years. In this class we will cover the basic steps and rhythm of swing while learning how to playfully respond to music and get comfortable expressing yourself. Students will learn the fundamentals of partner connection, lead-follow dynamics, momentum, frame and posture, and the history of swing and Lindy Hop. Moves taught in the beginning series will vary each month with an opportunity for students to improve their fundamental technique while increasing their vocabulary of moves. No pre-requisite required. It is recommended that students take this class multiple times to gain a solid foundation before advancing to other classes.
After the class time ends at 7:30 there will be a 30 minute DJed practice session to put what you learned into action!
This is a series class. Please plan to start October 7th and come the whole month! No partner necessary.
