Skills & Drills
Balance, Control, Style

Day & Time: Tuesday, 20:45 – 21:45

Dates: 01.04.2025 – 13.05.2025 (no classes on 22.04.)

Want to know how to improve your dancing, no matter what the move and no matter which partner? How to improve your Lindy Hop without needing to add more moves to your repertoire?  How to refine your movements, prevent injuries, and just plain dance better?  Then we have the perfect course for you!

In this course it’s not about moves and variations, it’s all about how you use and move your body in the dance, and making you more comfortable, more powerful, more refined … more awesome.

What will I learn in this course?

This course is all about quality of movement - how to move your body efficiently, how to prevent injuries and strains on the body, how to create movements with elegance and control.  The course is primarily designed to help you improve your partnered Lindy Hop and Charleston, but you will surely see benefits in your Solo Jazz dancing as well 🙂  There will be a lot of solo training in the course, but also some partnered exercises.  Topics will vary depending on the teacher, but can include:

  • posture and balance
  • body isolations and polycentric movement
  • spins & turns
  • footwork abilities and variations
  • rhythm
  • developing your style

What should I know before joining?

Anyone can benefit from this course, from very new to very experienced dancers. In order to work well with the group we expect you to have some experience dancing Lindy Hop and Charleston or other dance styles.

If you are not sure whether the course is right for you, don’t hesitate to ask us 🙂

Here’s where Skills & Drills takes place:

SwingStation Kurfürsten-Anlage 58
69115 Heidelberg

The entrance is on the eastern side of the building, reachable from the Kurfürsten-Anlage itself or from the Kirchstraße. Our studio is on the ground floor, at the end of the hall.

Public Transportation: many busses, streetcars, trains; stops “Hauptbahnhof” or “Stadtwerke”.

Parking: please do not park in the yard, the parking spaces don’t belong to us and you might get a ticket. It’s hard to find parking spots in our area, so you should plan in some extra time. You can try to find street parking in the Kirchstraße or Vangerowstraße, or you might need to go to a nearby Parkhaus (e.g. P1 in the Poststraße) and walk from there.
