6-Count Swing
Start dancing from day one! We will get you moving in this month-long series that introduces you to basic footwork, turns, breaks and jazzy stylin'. Covers the 6-count basics, also sometimes known as East Coast Swing, which is also used in Lindy Hop.
Pre-requisites: None. No partner required; just bring your enthusiasm and comfortable clothes!
Level 2 (7:15pm - 8:15pm)
w/ Yulia & Rachel
Flashy Charleston
Spice up your Lindy language with some fast-paced, flashy Charleston. Your trusty guides will navigate you through the ins and outs and all of the awesome variations in between.
Pre-requisites: Level 1A-D; twice through recommended. 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 - 8:15pm)
w/ Lori & Brynna
Flow & Momentum
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 - 9:15pm)

Pure Bal Improvisations

Pre-requisites: Balboa A1 – Balboa Foundations: Pure Bal class series. No partner required; just bring your enthusiasm and comfortable clothes!
Next Week: Pajammy Jam
The homiest, softest, most heart-warming party of the year — ladies and gentlemen, it’s time for our seventh annual Pajammy Jam! Every year we allocate a special night when we want to dance at our comfiest, when we bring the sense of home onto the WNH floor. And of course there will be a Sock Slide competition — and prizes!
Please remember that we’re a family-friendly venue and keep your attire appropriate. See you in your fun pajamas, and dance like it’s your kitchen floor!
Lindy Hop is happiness in its purest form... therefore a gift certificate to learn it is the perfect gift for any occasion!
