What to expect

Check the organiser's page for the exact format, level and what is included.

Lindy Hop is the original swing dance, created by African-American dancers in Harlem in the late 1920s and 1930s and danced to big-band swing jazz. It is a partner dance built on an eight-count swingout, mixed with six-count moves, and it is famously improvised – lead and follow play with the music rather than repeating a routine. It suits any age, and most classes rotate partners. Read our full guide.

Solo Jazz (or authentic jazz) covers the steps danced alone to swing music – the Shim Sham, Charleston variations, tacky annie and many more from the swing era. It improves your timing, style and musicality, and it needs no partner at all. Read our full guide.
