Lindy Hop beginners course

Lindy Hop - groovy, crazy, intuitive and creative, full of energy! From 1928 to the 1940s, this highly popular dance was a melting pot of jazz music, African and Afro-Cuban dance cultures, tap dancing, Charleston and European couple dancing.Lindy Hop is usually danced in an open position, there is a lot of freedom for the dancers to immerse themselves in the music and turn the dance into a lively conversation with their partner, from slow to very fast.Beginners' courseIn this course, the basics of the first and most popular swing dance, Lindy Hop, are introduced and practiced: rhythm and groove, the basic steps and techniques. You will mainly dance with a partner, but there will also be some solo dances. The emphasis is on the relaxed and free nature of the music and dance, creativity and fun! No previous dance experience is required. >> From 21-23.11.2025 there will be an advanced course <<
