Lindy Essentials (12 weeks)
After the 6 week Beginners course you are now ready to move to the Lindy Essentials Class. As the name suggest this class will give you all your essential moves, building on the fundamentals taught in Beginners. Lindy Essentials takes around 12 weeks and presents to you all the classic Lindy moves. You'll be able to put these combinations into use on the social floor and create your own.
Moves taught in this class include (but are not limited to): underarm turns, tuck turns, she goes/he goes, Texas Tommy, tandem Charleston, swingout variations for leads and follows and 6-count moves such as pass bys and sugar push.
There is also an important emphasis (as always) on 'lead and follow', connection, styling, musicality and floorcraft.
Lindy Evolve (6–8+ months)
Now that you've been dancing for around 18 weeks you're ready to Evolve! You should be completely comfortable with the fundamental moves of swingouts, Charlestons and Lindy circles, have been out social dancing and have been putting together moves from the Essentials Class.
This next level is where you being to evolve as a dancer. It's where your own growth takes place as you explore your own styling, musicality, technique and of course moves to make lindy hop your own. This class is more flexible than the previous levels, with challenges like Balboa, Shag, 20s Charleston, jazz steps, pure technique classes and Big Apples to keep you on your toes and some guest teachers thrown in for good measure too!
