the newbie's. If you don't have perfect basics and are not teaching all
over the world you should take this class.) (I would like to make this
class for people who have at least taken one Lindy Hop class before so
we can really concentrate on basics instead of learning the footwork.)

music. You will learn swing jazz movements, style and have some fun
dancing without a partner.) (no experience in Lindy Hop required)

covering some of the concepts of Lindy Hop, musicality, lead/follow and
other basic techniques while learning some new variations which apply
these concepts.)
