Information for our new 6 week session is now up! Sunday classes start on February 26 in Newton Lower Falls and Monday classes start on February 27 in Boston (near Fenway Park). Both locations include a class in Beginner Swing/Intro to Lindy Hop Level 1, appropriate for anyone starting out as well as those with some experience who are working on building a solid foundation of dance skills. Six count basics will be covered along with a variety of fun steps to build your repertoire and get you out on the dance floor!
Lindy Hop Level 2 is also offered in both locations. This class is for more intermediate level Swing dancers, although no prior Lindy Hop experience is required. Eight and six count basics will be mixed along with a variety of classic Lindy Hop, newer variations, and a focus on partnering, technique and style.
For intermediate to advanced Lindy Hoppers, we are excited to say that we’ll be teaching The Lindy Chorus! If you are not familiar with this, it is a classic routine choreographed by Frankie Manning and known to Lindy Hoppers around the world. In 1999, about 120 couples, including some of us from Boston, traveled to NYC to perform the Lindy Chorus for Frankie at his 85th birthday celebration. We have had several opportunities to perform it since then, including beside Frankie himself! In his honor, we’ll be teaching it this session. Join us for this fun class! It meets on Sundays in Newton. You do not need to attend with a partner.
If you have any friends interested in getting into dancing, lessons are a great way to get started. Please pass on the info!
