This routine is well know all over the Lindy World and is of the classics in the modern in Lindy scene.
The workshop will be taught by Eiki Gudmundsson, long time Happy Feet teacher.

This routine was choreographed by Kelly Porter, Joshua Welter and Michael Faltesek, to the song “Doin’ the Jive” by the Careless Lovers.

The Jitterbug Stroll [Live-Streamed Workshop]
Thursday April 23rd from 19.00 to 20.30.

In this workshop you can learn the classic and fun solo jazz routine: The Jitterbug Stroll

The Jitterbug Stroll is a swing line dance choreographed in 1992 by Ryan Francois.

So come learn the steps, so you are ready to join the next time it is danced at a dance. The routine will also be danced at the upcoming Zoom Swing Dance party on Saturday 25th, organized by Happy Feet.

The workshop is for people of all dancing levels. There are some easier steps and some more tricky ones. So no matter if you are a complete beginner or an experienced dancer, there will be challenges for you.

HFS Zoom Swing Dance Party vol. 3

Band tonight!

Remember the beloved Jam sessions lead by Daniel Rodrigues at the Happy Feet parties?

Tonight Daniel will be back with some friends for a Jam session directly from the studio for our Zoom Swing Dance party!

We are looking forward to dancing to the Happy Feet Jammers and to partying with you tonight!

—————————————————————————————-

Join our third online Zoom Swing Dance party this Saturday!

Zoom is an online platform for video conferences that allows people to have a video hangout together.

We have set up an account that allows 500 people to join the same video hang out! So there is room for a big party!

Normally these kind of parties would be all about people talking with each other. But we swing dancers have other ways to party together!

So this meetup will have very little talk. Instead, we will be dancing together of course!

We will be playing great swing music for you via Zoom that you can dance along to while also watching everyone else dancing along at the same time to the same music! It’s going to feel like being a big Swing Dance party with everyone dancing together! 🙂

We will of course also do the Shim Sham and the Tranky Doo – you can learn both in our online workshops from the previous weeks. You can find them here: https://www.facebook.com/pg/HappyFeetStudioCph/videos

We will also organize several dancing games during the party that you can join regardless of whether you have a partner to dance with or not.

We hope you will join this experiment in having an online Swing Dance party! We look forward to be dancing with you!

Much love,
Kuno & Gosia

Easy Footwork Variations [Live-Streamed Workshop]

Easy Footwork Variations [Live-Streamed Workshop]
Monday April 20th from 19.00 to 20.30.

This workshop will introduce easy footwork variations which are especially well suited for people who are less experienced in this topic.

Doing “footwork variations” basically just means that we spice the 6- or 8-count footwork we normally use in our moves up by introducing small changes to it. This can be a lot of fun and it’s a perfect thing to practice without a partner – so that you are ready to impress next time you have a partner dance again.

In the workshop we will share our favorite easy footwork variations in Lindy Hop that can be used by both leaders and followers.
These footwork variations will be a perfect starting point for learning more complex ideas later on. So come join the workshop and start your footwork adventure.

Participation will be donations based. Meaning, the stream will be available to everyone via our Facebook page and if you enjoy it and want to support us, you can send us a donation for your participation.
