Level 1 (8:15pm)
8-Count Lindy Hop

w/ Carla & Philippe

When you really want to dig that swing beat, there’s nothing like 8-count lindy hop! We will start with the basics, from zero dance experience on up, and get you swinging around the dance floor in no time! This is a progressive 4-week class; show up on the first week to get maximum benefit.

PRE-REQUISITES: None. No partner required; just bring your enthusiasm and comfortable clothes!

 
 
CARLA HEINEY & PHILIPPE WILSON
 
 
ELIOTT GRAY & AUDREY HA
 
 

Level 2 (7:15pm)
Tandem Charleston

w/ Audrey Ha & Eliott

Spice up your Lindy language with some hot, fast-paced Tandem Charleston. Your trusty guides will navigate you through the ins and outs and all of the awesome variations in between. We'll focus on footwork, connection, and creative ways these fun steps can be added seamlessly into your Charleston repertoire.

PRE-REQUISITES: Execute a swingout, lindy circle, charleston and 6-count moves and transition between them in open and closed positions. No partner required, just bring your enthusiasm!

 
 

Level 3 (7:15pm)
Flow and Momentum

w/ Carla & Philippe

When everything feels right, leaders and followers feel comfortable playing off each other by directing and redirecting energy and momentum. In this class, we will help you explore this flow and share a few ways to incorporate it into your dancing.

PRE-REQUISITES: At least nine consecutive months of Level 1 and Level 2 including one full year of social dance, or discuss your eligibility with instructors.  Under-qualified students will be asked to transfer to Level 2 in order to strengthen their fundamentals.

Elective (8:15pm)
Introduction to Air Steps

w/ Audrey Ho & Paul

Flight Academy, class of 2015! Time to soar from the deck and fly high! In this elective series, you'll be trained from the ground up to be pilots and flyers with super fun, flashy, and safe lifts and aerials for swing or other dances. We'll build from solid fundamentals to make sure everyone is safe and comfortable. Top Gun ain't got nothin' on you all after this series, get ready for some action!

PRE-REQUISITES: Partner required, as you'll be working as a team together for the whole series! Any combination of guys and gals are fine. Clothing should be comfortable, with no large buckles or other hard objects; bases and flyers should both wear level sole shoes (no heels please). No dance experience needed, but a sense of adventure required :) See you on the tarmac!

 
 
 

NEW: Fast Feet Room

10:30-11:30 w/ DJ Jeff

For those who love to swing out fast, and to shuffle even faster, we introduce the Fast Feet Room! Held in the red room for an hour after the birthday jam, with a separate DJ, playing only songs of 180 BPM or higher. Come join the sweat and the fun... if you dare ;)

 
 
 

Next Week: The Sock Hop

Dressed in 50's garbs, let's say good-bye to the summer the Sock Hop style -- with our ever-popular Sock Slide competition. As usual, the winners will get cool prizes. So who slides the farthest?
