The Jitterbug Stroll
Wednesday, December 16
6:30p-7:30p, $10
My Roots
The Jitterbug Stroll was created by modern-era Swing legend, Ryan Francois*, as a warm-up for his Swing troupes. Francois was among the first generation of Lindy Hoppers to revive the dance in the 1980s, coming over to America from England to learn and teach.
This fun, upbeat, Swing routine uses vernacular jazz movements put together in the style of a "London Stroll" (meaning dancers face all four sides of the room during the routine).
This routine is performed at a medium-fast tempo, so those with some experience moving to Swing or Jazz music will get the most of out of this class.
*Ryan Francois was your professor's first favorite Swing dancer. He is amazing. Here he is with the wonderful Moe Sakan:
**NOTE: This will be the final class of 2026. Visit our website, www.profjitterbug.com for details on schedules and classes for 2027!
