The original swing dance. Come and see what you're missing!
Energetic. Playful. Creative. At Swing Shift, we teach authentic Lindy Hop, true to its roots as an African American art form that’s over a century old. This partner dance isn’t about learning fixed sequences of moves – it’s about creating momentum, and sensing and responding in real time. And the soundtrack? Banging jazz tunes all the way.
In our improver classes, you'll learn:
- Drills to help you develop your understanding of authentic Lindy Hop movements and rhythms
- Short sequences of classic moves
- Core principles for leading and following
- Core principles for momentum and flow
- Options for variations
- Solo jazz moves to spice things up
- Musicality and expression
Each session is an hour-long class followed by half an hour of social dancing and practice time. No partner needed. Open to total beginners.
The drop-in price is £10 on the door in cash or card, no need to book in advance.
