Teachers: Jessie and Benjie from The Swing Project in Cardiff are all about community, connection and collaboration - and they try to make sure all their classes are a reflection of that, creating space for people to come together to share and grow as we all learn how to be better guests in jazz culture. They love to explore how we can can all have more equal, creative, playful, rhythmical conversations in our Lindy Hop and want to empower you to show up not just for your partner, but for yourself in your dancing.
Difficulty Level: Aimed at Lindy hoppers who are comfortable dancing at socials, and can switch between six count and eight count rhythms. You are familiar with leading or following classic moves like swing outs and are ready to explore new challenges and approach your dancing with a new lens.
