Lindy hop comes from a specific time and place, and it has grown organically as the music changed. Learn moves and stylings from different eras inspired by vintage clips, while discussing how the history of the music and dance influence the look and feeling of the movements.

>> What's a practicum and social dance?
We DJ music just like a regular social dance. You can come out and just dance like normal, or you can come planning to work on something: Ask for feedback, work on a move, play with variations, master a routine.

>> Have a specific question?
Experienced dancers and local teachers are available at practicum to help out with sticky spots.

>> Balboa? Shag? Solo? Learning swingouts?
Let the DJ know what you're working on if you have specific music requests!
