Charleston kicks have always been an integral part of Lindy Hop! This evening we'll start both level 1 AND level 2 Charleston. For this month you may want to ditch the leather soled shoes and wear more comfortable clothing.

Charleston - Level 1 Swing Series will jump start with the basic, some variation options, and getting into open Charleston shapes. This series is for anyone who feels comfortable social dancing!

Charleston - Level 2 Swing Series will play with options for getting in and out of tandem and workshopping our s-turns. This series is for dancers who have already taken a Level 1 Charleston series and feel comfortable switching between Charleston and triple step rhythms.

Yesterday was World Lindy Hop Day and Frankie Manning's birthday!

This evening we'll finish our Frankie's Favorites series in level 1 and 2 and then play many of the songs Frankie loved throughout the evening.

Frankie Manning was one of the earliest swing dancers and his passion and joy were infectious to everyone around him. It's likely many of us wouldn't be dancing at all if Frankie hadn't danced and so we celebrate his legacy and joy on his birthday every May 26.
