March 2019: Lindy 3: How to Throw Down

Competitions, jams, and performance have been an integral part of Lindy Hop since the era of the Savoy Ballroom. In keeping with that history, this month's class will get you up to speed on throwing down. We'll spend part of the time getting you more familiar with competition/jam formats and helping you feel more comfortable dancing under high-pressure situations, and part of the time helping you figure out how to SHINE when you're in the spotlight. This class will be helpful for folks who are interested in competing, but will also improve your confidence, energy, aesthetic, and badass-ness. There will be lots of opportunities for personal feedback.

Lindy 3 classes are intended for students who have completed (and are confident in) all elements of the Lindy 2 curriculum (which includes at least one month of Fundamentals). The topic for these classes changes every month at the discretion of the instructors. This class satisfies the Competitions/Jams requirement for the Starlight Pass.
