    Beginners:
    8-count Lindy Hop

    Come learn Lindy Hop! You'll build the dance from the basics while learning some of the history of this Black American art form.

    Fundamentals: Mixing 6s & 8s

    Got your 6-count and 8-count moves but not sure when to use which? This class brings it all together! We'll help you make sense of your beginner moves, explore follower-initiated moments, and dive into fun musicality techniques.

     

    Intermediate: Pause Like a Pro

    Join us for a micromusicality class! Add texture to your favorite moves with pauses, stomps, and playful variations. Explore swing music more deeply, gain fresh dance ideas, and connect better with your partner all while having more fun on the floor!

    Fast Room

    8/13: Fast Room in KHall

    WNH will dedicate a room to all things “fast swing.” This could mean uptempo Lindy Hop, or dancing other swing dances such as Balboa or Collegiate Shag that evolved with faster music. Give it a whirl!
