The Lindy Hop

Lindy Hop is the dance of the era - the joyful, jitterbugging partner dance that swept dance halls through the war years.

These 45-minute taster classes are perfect for complete beginners: no experience needed, no partner required (you'll rotate partners as you go), and you'll be jiving to jazz in no time.

Just bring a smile and a pair of comfy flat shoes.
