- **Event Name**: Workshop! Improvisation in Lindy Hop with Stefan Andersson
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 25 Jan, 2026 at 04:30 pm – Sun, 25 Jan, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Improvisation in Lindy Hop

Improvisation has always been at the heart of Lindy Hop, just as it is fundamental to jazz as a whole. As Jazz legend Miles Davis famously said, "It’s not the note you play that’s the wrong note – it’s the note you play afterwards that makes it right or wrong." This
workshop embraces that philosophy, encouraging dancers to focus less on correct execution of figures and more on the joy of creating something new with a dance partner in the moment, while still honoring the origins of the dance.

Rather than being a Lindy Hop workshop that focuses on improvisation, this is an improvisation workshop set within a Lindy Hop context. Many of the techniques originate from how improvisation skills are taught in other artistic fields and in business. They have then been tailored to maximize their utility in a swing partner dance like Lindy Hop.

Key focus areas of the workshop include:
1. Responding creatively to your dance partner's ideas
2. Transforming "mistakes" into opportunities
3. Cultivating presence and active listening on the dance floor

Whether you're a seasoned dancer or fairly new to Lindy Hop, this course will challenge you to think differently about your dancing and inspire you to take more risks on the dance floor, resulting in a more engaging, more social and more enjoyable social dance experience.
