Level Descriptions

Improver/Intermediate: You regularly attend Lindy Hop classes and are comfortable leading or following a dance. You know 6 and 8 count basics and can mix them on the social dance floor, comfortably social dancing a whole song in Lindy Hop. You have experience and are familiar with most of the fundamental core moves of Lindy Hop but would like to work on lead and follow frame and technique. 

Advanced: You understand lead and follow technique, can dance at different tempos and understand musical phrasing. You are confident with all the key moves such as swing outs, Lindy turns, circle, Texas Tommy and tandem Charleston etc…and are comfortable on the social dance floor with a variety of partners, demonstrating good technique. It is not about how long you have been dancing, but how well you are able to pick up and execute more complicated material.
