with Clàudia Fonte & Ali Taghavi


brought to you by Downtownswing

Concept

Do you know the feeling that you go to a festival, receive great new dance material, but never get around to train it? Or maybe when you do train the material, you still have some questions that you would love to ask the teachers?

Lindy Lab is a series of workshops aimed at improving your dance and practice skills! This concept creates the unique opportunity to learn from fantastic international teachers, and work together with them to improve your dancing!

If the answer to the questions below is YES, then the Lindy Lab is something for you!

  • Do you want to learn new figures, technique and styling from internationally renowned teachers and push your dancing?
  • Do you want to practice and ask questions to local teachers who know the new material and can help you enhance your training skills?
  • Do you want to get to know others with whom you can train also outside of the workshop?

International Instructors

Lindy Lab digs deep into specific material with one internationally renowned teaching couple to fully immerse into their talent, styling and technique!

High Intensity

The workshop will give you a total of 8h of Lindy Hop(4h of focused classes and 4h of supervised practice time!)

Supervised Practice

The Lindy Lab provide structured practice time supervised by local teachers to help and give you tools for an enhanced training and continued learning at home. 

Party Hard

Explore your latest Lindy Hop input from the Lab, have fun social dancing or simply meet up with friends! Social dance party on Saturday night from 21:00-01:00.

Classes in this workshop will be small (approx. 12 couples), and we aim to fill the levels with ambitious and dedicated dancers.

Levels

Duke Ellington SOLD OUT!

You never miss a chance to dance in your scene and attended multiple international workshops. Your dance connects to the music.

You have a good variety of figures. You can lead/follow clearly, sometimes you add some improvisation. Your dance shows the changes in the music. You can handle fast music. You are hooked to Lindy Hop and want to improve as fast as possible!

Count Basie SOLD OUT!

Your life is filled with lindy hop! Classes, practice, parties, and you have attended numerous international workshops. All the time! Your dance expresses musicality and the mood of the song.

You are in full control of your body movement and are able to analyze and adjust your own dancing. You have no problem leading/following, improvising and dancing to really fast music. You know exactly what you want to improve in your own dancing. You probably learn a lot from filming yourself, training with dance partners and working on small details.
