Level 1 (Beginners) Lindy Hop

This class is perfect for complete beginners! You don’t need any experience or a partner, just a willingness to try something new. You’ll be introduced to the fundamentals of the lindy hop so you can get on the dance floor in no time!

Our Beginner classes run in progressive month-long courses. The first week is always drop-in friendly, so perfect if you just want to give it a try but aren’t sure if you want to commit to the whole 4 weeks.

Weeks 2-3 will build on what we learn in week 1. You can join us on the first Thursday of any month but you won’t be able to join mid-way through a course without asking us first (just send us an email at swingdanceadelaide@gmail.com).

Level 2 (Intermediate) Lindy Hop

This class builds on the fundamentals from our beginner classes. These classes are drop in friendly, but you need to be familiar with our pre-requisites.

To join this class you will need to be familiar with basic lindy hop and Charleston vocabulary (including basic rhythms, lindy circle, swing out, promenade, tuck turn, send out, pass by and hand to hand Charleston).

These pre-requisites help make sure that it’s a positive learning experience for you and others in the class. If you’re not sure if this class is right for you, please email us at swingdanceadelaide@gmail.com.

• Safety is important to us. Check out our Code of Conduct before you come to class. This makes sure we’re all on the same page and can make it a positive learning environment for everyone.
• We rotate couples. This means that you don’t need to bring a partner and we all get a chance to meet and dance with everyone. We find this also helps people learn faster, so win-win! If you’d prefer not to rotate, that’s okay too.
• You’re in charge of your learning. we love it when you ask questions and we don’t mind repeating things, going slower or giving one on one help. Just ask.
• Give things a go. We don’t expect anyone to pick things up and do them perfectly straight away. Just give it a try, be patient with yourself and be kind to others.
• Take breaks and stay hydrated! You can take breaks whenever you need to.
• We’re here to help. If you need help or have any concerns, just ask one of our friendly teachers or door staff.
