Description

Join us by signing up to our popular DayHopper workshop and let our friendly teachers Chloe and Graham will guide you through the basics!

Event: Daytime workshop to learn the technique and different steps of Lindy Hop to give you a good sense of what the dance is all about.

Level: This day workshop is ideal for people who have never danced before or have never danced swing dancing before, but it’s also suitable for new students who feel like they want to progress faster.

Why attend: Our friendly and knowledgable teachers will guide you through the different aspects of Lindy Hop. This is the perfect opportunity to try out authentic swing dance in an exciting workshop, which is a good mix of fun, accessible teaching, and the opportunity to challenge yourself.

Our teachers Chloe and Graham are a fantastic duo. Apart from being great people they are passionate about sharing the dance they love with new dancers. 

The Swing Era is a Swing Dance school based in Moseley. We run our DayHopper classes (and our regular 6 week Lindy Hop courses) in the beautiful St Columba Church right in the heart of Moseley Village. In this bohemian neighbourhood, you'll find plenty of coffee shops, bars and cafes to re-fuel after an afternoon of dancing!
