Zero to Hero: Where and how to learn
Beginner Swing Series (8 weeks)
For new eager dancers
This Series runs 3 times per year—once in the winter, summer & fall
The Beginner Swing Series offers much more than the beginner drop-in lessons. In this series you will learn the essential technique, rhythm, and moves that are iconic to swing dancing. Each lesson builds on the previous lesson, and the instructor caters to the class skill level. If you want to invest your time really getting to know this dance, then this series is for you!
Saturday beginner drop-in lessons
For new casual dancers
These lessons run nearly every Saturday night throughout the year!
Beginner drop-in lessons offer a casual way for you to start swing dancing. You can attend these drop-in lessons whenever you would like without needing to pre-register and you can attend them as frequently as you wish. Each beginner-drop in lesson goes through the very basics for new dancers, but may cover different moves and techniques each time. If you want to attend these often, check out our punch card option
Advanced Beginner Swing Series (8 weeks)
For dancers who:
Completed Beginner Swing Series or
Learned the 6-count and 8-count rhythm at our social dances or
Continuing dancers who have already taken this series, other series, & still want to learn
This Series runs 3 times per year—once in the winter, summer & fall
In this series, there are many different topics that can be covered, including (but not limited to): Charleston, musicality, technique, moves/combinations, partner connection, slow vs fast dancing. The topic of the class will be decided by the instructors based on their assessment of the dancers in their class. If you are keen on continuing your learning and improving your swing dancing, then this series is for you!
Workshops
For dancers who:
Completed our beginner Swing series or
Learned the 6-count and 8-count rhythm at our social dances or
Dancers who consider themselves “advanced dancers”
These workshops runs 3 times per year—once in the winter, summer & fall
In a workshop, we teach a condensed, intensive set of lessons in one day. These lessons cover many weeks of material within just a 3-4 hour period—they are very time effective! The workshop is usually taught by instructors from other dance communities (e.g., Seattle, Edmonton, Vancouver). Since out-of-town instructors teach the lessons, they offer valuable and unique insights and knowledge that you might not be able to learn anywhere else!
Stay tuned for announcements on our next workshop!
Private Lessons
For any dancer
We offer private lessons by request. Email us at info@lindyintheloops.com to make a request!
If you prefer to learn 1-on-1, we have many instructors who can teach you privately. Send us an email, and we will try to pair you up with an instructor. When you’re paired up, you and the instructor can determine time, location and price. Private lessons are the most expensive option to learn, but they provide the most tailored and efficient learning experience.
