Swing Dance Workshops – Beginners & Beginners Plus

Two workshops to learn or improve on your swing dancing! You can come to just one, or both.

2.30pm-4pm – Beginners: Suitable for absolute beginners, or those wanting to recap on what they’ve already learnt. 1.5 hour workshop followed by 30 minutes practice time.

4pm-4.30pm – Practice time for both classes. We’ll play some swing music for you to dance with each other, ask questions and have a practice dance.

4.30pm-6pm – Beginners Plus: Suitable for those of you who have been on at least 1 workshop (today or another day). Come along for a practice at 4pm to warm up if you haven’t already!

In our Swing Dance Beginners Workshop we will take you through some of the foundations of this vintage partnered dance, the Lindy Hop, with plenty of time for practice!

In our Swing Dance Beginners Plus workshop we will be building on what you have learn and teaching more fun moves. You can come to just one of these workshops, or to both (with a 30 minute break!).

Our Lindy Hop workshops are friendly and supportive, and are suitable for absolute beginners, as well as those wanting to recap what they’ve already learnt.

About Swing Dance:
We will be learning the Lindy hop, a style of swing dancing born from the dance halls of 1920s and 30s Harlem. In recent years swing dancing has been enjoying a revival, and it can now be found all over the world!

Please note that we rotate partners during the workshops.
