Learn to dance lindy hop - beginner's course

Join our Lindy Hop dance class for complete beginners. The course will last 7 weeks and the first class is free! You do not need to bring a dance partner as we will rotate partners in class.

Lindy Hop

The Lindy Hop is a partner dance developed alongside the Jazz of the 1920s-1940s. The dance is characterised by an 8 count basic, with 6 count and Charleston moves as key accessories to the standard vocabulary. It is arguably the most energetic of the swing dances!

What do I wear..?

Recommended clothes for class are whatever you feel comfortable moving in. Students wear everything from athletic wear to skirts, dresses and suspender trousers. Recommended shoes are your most comfortable flat shoes. Regular sneakers are just fine in the beginning, but our floors are slightly sticky, so choose the pair with the most slippery sole.

Location

We hold our classes in an artist space called KRA (Kunst Rom Arbeid), link to google maps: https://goo.gl/maps/hQawyVfiVhpxQtRdA. The address is Verven 24, 4014 Stavanger. Walk along the right side of the building and you will find a door. We are on the third floor. If you are driving, do not park directly outside the building, but along the road is fine. There is a big parking space here: https://goo.gl/maps/6N5Xo68mtDozLjbn7.
