Class Description

Swedish dancer Asa Heedman tells a story about when she and her partner Daniel asked the legendary Frankie Manning to evaluate their social dancing. After watching for a few minutes he shook his head and asked them to stop. “Can you just do some gliding,” he asked. What Frankie meant was -- nothing fancy, just glide across the floor. As Daniel puts it, “Keep it simple so you *can* dance.” We’ll take a deep dive into a variety of basic shapes and patterns and work on truly gliding. Don’t be surprised if it transforms your own movement, your connection, and the ease with which those variations start to flow.  

Fundamentals classes are aimed at any student who has completed, and is confident in, the Lindy 1 curriculum. We encourage students to consider taking Fundamentals classes concurrently with either Lindy 2 or Lindy 3 classes - everyone can always be working on their fundamentals!
