Our summer break is starting later this month on August 25th and goes until September 6th.
What this means is during this time we will not be offering classes or events so our staff has time to rest and reset before the rest of our 2026 Lindy Hop programming.
The next session of classes will likely start Sept. 7th and will be open for registration one to two weeks before that. This will be updated as this is finalized.
Boston Lindy Hop promotes swing dancing in Boston by teaching swing dance classes for all levels. You can learn authentic, vintage swing dance forms such as: Lindy Hop, Charleston, Vernacular Jazz, and more!
Our six-week long beginner series classes start almost every month—see the schedule for the latest classes that are available to you.
Lindy Hop is the original Swing Dance, developed by the Black community to jazz music in Harlem, New York during the Harlem Renaissance in the 1920s and 1930s. There are numerous other swing dances out there, but virtually all of them evolved out of the patterns and rhythms of the Lindy Hop. The dance still has a large and active following throughout the world today!
You can learn more about the history of the dance from this Yehoodi film.
