This class is suitable for complete beginners but will also have something for those with more dance experience. You will learn the classic steps of lindy hop and charleston and how to have fun with your partner and the music. There's a free social dance on right after to practice everything you learned.
About the Dance
The Lindy Hop is an African American Vernacular partnered social dance developed primarily in the ballrooms of Harlem (New York) during the late 1920's. It became very popular during the swing era and was featured in a number of films and show productions throughout the 30's and 40's.
What to wear?
Wear what feels comfortable and allows for easy movement. It doesn't matter what shoes you wear as long as they're not too grippy and can slide a little on wooden floors.
