Instructors: Jamie P. & Doug B.
Date: Saturday, May 9
Lesson: 2:00 PM - 4:00PM
Please arrive 10 minutes early to check-in.
Prerequisites: Lindy Hop 1 or comparable experience (you should already be familiar with swingouts).
Description:
Whether you just learned the swingout last month, or you’ve been fine-tuning it for years, there’s always more to explore when it comes to Lindy Hop’s most iconic move! Jamie and Doug will share some of their favorite tips for making swingouts feel more connected and effortless. Expect fun activities to help you unlock that satisfying stretch that makes swingouts feel oh-so-good!
We'll be working on:
- Solidifying the connection points between lead and follow, so that you can find that stretchy feeling without slipping away.
- Building trust between lead and follow, so that you can actually leverage one another to complete the movement instead of just running in circles!
- Empowering follows to commit to their movement instead of anticipating what comes next.
- Encouraging leads to communicate information about direction and momentum with more clarity.
Price: $25 online. $35 at-the-door.
