Red Square has decided to CLOSE on Wednesdays, which makes it difficult of course to run a dance that night... so NO DANCES ON WEDNESDAYS for now until we find another venue.

There are still drop-in lessons (8:00) & dances (9:00) at Austin Grill on Mondays, of course.

Introduction to Lindy Hop
(Beginner/Intermediate) Even if you have some Lindy Hop experience, it is always recommended to continue learning basic technique. NOTE: We encourage you to take this class with the Big Apple/Solo Steps class at 8:30. Prerequisite: a few weeks of the Monday classes or other swing dance experience. Moves Taught: basic in closed; basic in open & sendout to open; underarm turn & tuck turn; slide pass right & left; swingout; swingout with inside turn; lindy circle; charleston basic
TUESDAYS JUL-AUG 8:30-9:30
Partnering 201
(Beginner/Intermediate) This class will bring your leading / following skills to a higher plane. You know you'll always learn fun new moves in a Charm City Swing class, but this class will cover moves that require attention to the quality of your connection. We'll show you how your own motion gets communicated to your partner and help you improve your connection from dialup to a serious T1 line. Prerequisite: a few weeks of the Monday classes or other swing dance experience.
TUESDAYS JUL-AUG 9:30-10:30
Musicality You Can Use-icality
(Intermediate/Advanced) This is an extended version of Dorry's very popular music theory for lindy hoppers workshop series. This is not a class where you'll be urged to "feel the music". Rather, we'll explain precisely how the music is constructed, how many bars to a phrase, the difference between standard swing and 12-bar blues, and what AABA means to your dancing. Each bit of music training will be associated with dance exercises. We'll emphasize syncopations and how to echo unusual rhythms in music within your steps. Prerequisite: Introduction to Lindy Hop or some experience with 8-count lindy hop
The Tuesday class series are limited and first-come-first-served so register now!
