This 4-week beginner course will have you ready to groove to swing jazz and to social dance at our next events. Learn the basic 6-count footwork pattern that is great for partnered dancing, and add a fun set of moves to your toolset. In the process, you’ll learn a fun little 6-count sequence originally shared by lindy hop legend Frankie Manning.
The complete Beginner series includes the following 4-week courses & workshops:
- Lindy Hop FUNdamentals
- Frankie’s Sixes
- Swing Out Foundations
- Charleston Essentials
Once you’re well-versed in the basics of Lindy Hop, which includes content from all these courses, you’ll be invited to take Improver-level classes/workshops at any of our locations. These Beginner courses will be repeated periodically (also as weekend workshops), providing more flexibility on how you’d like to complete them as a whole.
No need to bring a partner: we rotate partners in class. Anyone can lead or follow – roles are not gendered.
COST: R130 per person drop-in (pay on arrival with card, SnapScan or cash) or R450 for all 4 classes in the course. CTS Members get unlimited classes (at their level). More info on our Pricing page.
PLEASE NOTE: You may join the first class on 16 August, thereafter it’s closed to first-timers.
