BEGINNERS LINDY HOP DROP-IN CLASS 18:30-19:20

The evening starts with a short taster class in Lindy Hop aka jitterbug , an African American couple swing dance from the ’30s Harlem, NY. This class is targeted at adults BUT teens that are OK taking classes with adults are also welcome to join.
Just come and join us, no partner and no registration needed.
This class is taught in English as there is always lots of tourists joining
This course is aimed at adults, but teenagers who dare are welcome to participate.

BALBOA DROP-IN CLASS 17:30-18:20

Imagine yourself gliding across the dance floor, completely in tune with the vibrant jazz music. Balboa makes it possible as you share a perfect embrace, effortlessly communicating even when the tempo becomes lightning-fast or the music gets wonderfully intricate. The dance becomes a beautiful expression of the music’s rhythms, riffs, and melodies, allowing you to showcase your style and interpretation with grace and fluidity.

Sounds hard? We promise we’ll make it easy!
