I Can Lindy Hop Beginners Workshop
Led by Lindy teachers Nigel Bell and Jacqui Evans this introductory workshop will teach you a routine with some fun swing dance sequences so that you will be able to dance to a whole track. You will learn the Lindy Hop footwork and understand how it works with the music. You will also learn some Charleston moves which were incorporated as this dance form evolved. You will also be shown you the basics of how to connect with your partner as a lead or follow – that way you will be able to mix and match the moves for added challenge and enjoyment.
Nigel and Jacqui aim for you to have a great time and go away with enough fun moves to play around with, should a swing track come on and you find a willing partner
