OurSwing Dance Project progressive lessons are for dancers who wish to explore the dance journey we call Lindy Hop.. We start with the fundamentals and then progress to more complex rhythms and patterns.. Individual rhythm and movement are stressed as fundamental building blocks for connecting to the music and to your partner while developing musicality and innovation.
It is not necessary to bring a partner. We will start with lessons followed by practice and social dancing to DJ’d music of the 30’s and 40’s jazz era.
