6pm TECHNIQUE CLINIC: Swing Out Intensive!

DANCE BETTER FASTER!

TECHNIQUE CLINIC BEFORE THE DANCE

The all-important Swing Out Intensive!

The Swing Out is the core move in Lindy Hop and it takes some time to master. This Technique Clinic intensive is the first of a three-part series that will give us the time to really practice and understand the dynamic of this crucial move and all its moving parts. Whether you have just completed our beginner swing out series (intro to 8-count) or you have been dancing for years, working on this core move will up your game!

Before every Big Monthly Dance, we offer an hour and a half Technique Clinic on changing topics. These popular clinics are designed for those who already know swing dance basics to work on and improve specific aspects of their dance-ability including musicality, leading and following, frame and connection, momentum and more.

Scroll down to register now and reserve your spot. You may pay cash, check or Venmo at the door. No credit cards.

$45 per person for the hour and half workshop.

DISCOUNT PRICE: Register for the Technique Clinic AND the Dance and pay only $35 for the clinic!
