recapturing the spirit of the 20s, 30s and 40s
 

After completing a block of Level 1, you are ready to move into Level Two. This Level is taught as a six week block to allow you to consolidate what you know, and move onto new material. You will learn more about Lindy Hop fundamentals and how to listen to, and dance to, the music.

If you've completed a Level 1 and Level 2 block but are still not confident dancing basic eight count moves, we advise you to either repeat Level 2 or perhaps take private lessons to improve your confidence.

Current Class Review
We took it nice and slow this week as we started out doing the new footwork. Step, Step, Triple-step, Step, Step, Triple-step. From here we split up and went over the follows and leads “pattern” separately so we didn’t get distracted. Follows, remember to keep your spotlight on your lead at all times and put your back into his hand – searching for that connection. Leads, be definite in your movement and drive on five.
Back together, we built up our Lindy Hop basic and soon you were dancing to the music. We added in a 4-beat pass-by drill, then got back to the basic (one of the hardest moves in Lindy Hop to master). Practice your footwork and holding your drinks and we will see you again this week where we will go over the basic, then add in some flavour.
