About the Dances
West Coast Swing
This smooth, expressive dance is perfect for those who love versatility. You can dance it to anything from pop hits to blues, and it’s all about improvisation. In this class, we’ll focus on building your foundation, so you’ll have the tools to freestyle and keep growing your skills!
Lindy Hop
Lindy Hop is the ultimate swing dance—joyful, energetic, and rich in history. It comes from the ballrooms of Harlem and has influenced so many dance styles. We’ll get you into the groove with 6- and 8-count rhythms, and soon you’ll be dancing to the rhythm of jazz, blues, and big band!
