Learn Lindy Hop from beginner to advanced with us using our:
Drop-ins
Drop-ins are weekly classes that you can join at any time.
The classes are independent of each other, so it doesn’t matter which week you join or whether you skip a class.
You can come with or without a partner. The lead and follow balance depends on who shows up.
Drop-ins
Important: First drop-in for free! If you’ve never taken a class with us, you can just drop by and join to see if Lindy Hop with SwingStep is something for you.
About drop-ins
Why:
Drop-in classes allow you to start dancing right away. There’s no waiting for a new course round here.
They can augment your regular course and fill your week with more dancing; or they can help you keep dancing and learning whenever your schedule is unpredictable.
If you want to explore different roles, or different topics, to get a broader exposure to the dance, this is the place for you.
What:
Every class lasts 60 minutes and you will also get a recap video that will be available for you on your Recap page.
You’ll learn together with people from different experience levels, broadening your learning environment and strengthening the community we share.
Classes are given in English and/or German, depending on the needs of the students.
