Lindy Hop Aerials, Beginners Workshop in Malmö with LinaMaria and Mattias!

Lindy Hop Aerials, Beginners Workshop with LinaMaria and Mattias!

English below,

Workshopen omfattar åtta timmars undervisning under två dagar och kommer att ta upp grundläggande teknik (hållning, timing, landning, uppvärmning etc.) för att arbeta med aerials.

Flera enkla, men effektfulla, aerials ingår men även mer avancerade aerials att arbeta vidare med efter helgen.

Kursen riktar sig till främst till akrobatiknybörjare men även par med tidigare erfarenhet är välkomna att repetera och jobba vidare med de mer avancerade aerialsen. Det finns inga krav på nivå inom Lindy Hop, alla är välkomna.

Under workshopen arbetar man tillsammans med samma partner och därför rekommenderar vi att man anmäler sig i par.

När: 11-12 april, Lördag & Söndag: 11:00 – 16:00 (lunch 13:00-14:00)
Var: Festsalen, Ungdomens hus, Norra Skolgatan 10 B, 211 52 Malmö

Kostnad: 1150 kr (Ungdom/Student 690 kr)
För ungdomsrabatt upp till 26 år använd koden UNG
För studentrabatt används koden STU

Anmälan:
https://dans.se/heptown/shop/new?event=274917

Ta med träningskläder och inomhusskor med bra dämpning, undvik svarta skosulor.

Kursen arrangeras av Mattias och LinaMaria i samarbete med Heptown, www.heptown.com Om ni har några frågor så skriv till mattias.bruzelius@gmail.com eller limabe2014@gmail.com.

Deltagande sker på egen risk men vi kommer att lära ut samtliga aerials steg för steg tillsammans med passare för att det skall kännas och vara tryggt och säkert.

Dansetikett: Aerials är väldigt roliga och effektfulla att göra men p.g.a. av skaderisken skall de inte göras på socialdansgolvet. Aerials passar däremot väldigt bra på uppvisningar, i jam circles eller vid sidan av dansgolvet!


The workshop includes eight hours of teaching over two days and will cover basic techniques (stance, timing, landing, warm-up, etc.) for working with aerials.
Several simple, but effective, aerials are included but also more advanced air aerials to work on after the weekend.

The course is aimed at aerial beginners, but couples with previous experience are also welcome to rehearse and take part in the more advanced aerials. There are no level requirements regarding Lindy Hop, everyone is welcome.

During the workshop you will work together with the same partner and therefore it is recommended that you register in pairs.

When: 11 – 12 April, Saturday & Sunday: 11:00 – 16:00 (lunch 13:00-14:00)
Where: Festsalen, Ungdomens hus, Norra Skolgatan 10 B, 211 52 Malmö

Cost: 1150 kr (Youth/Student 690kr)
Youth discount for 26 years and below use booking code UNG
Student discount use booking code STU

Registration:
https://dans.se/heptown/shop/new?event=274917

Bring training clothes and indoor shoes with good dampening, avoid black soles.

The workshop is arranged by Mattias and LinaMaria in collaboration with Heptown. If you have any questions, write to mattias.bruzelius@gmail.com or limabe2014@gmail.com.

Participation is at your own risk, but we will teach all aerials step by step together with a spotter so that it will feel and be safe and secure.

Dance Etiquette: Aerials are very fun and spectacular to do but due to of the risk of injury you should not do them on the social dance floor. Aerials, on the other hand, are very suitable for shows, in jam circles or beside the dance floor!

AERIAL
A Aerial (also acrobatic or air step) is a dance move in Lindy Hop where one’s feet leave the floor. The term has come to mean a wide range of special and unusual dance moves, including dips, slides, and tricks.

13.30-15.00 Class

Följ HepTown bortom Facebook. Vi testar Telegram, Signal & Mastodon

Vi utökar vår digitala närvaro! För att minska vårt beroende av Facebook och erbjuda er mer integritetsvänliga alternativ, testar vi nu att ha informationsflöden på Signal, Telegram och Mastodon.

Vi vill låta dig välja den plattform och app som passar dig bäst. Här är en guide till hur de fungerar och var du hittar oss.

📢 TELEGRAM (Rekommenderas för nyheter)

Vår Telegram-kanal är det alternativ som är mest likt vår Facebook-sida. Det fungerar som ett öppet nyhetsflöde där du enkelt kan bläddra tillbaka och se gamla inlägg, videor och historik.

🔒 SIGNAL (Fokus på integritet)

För dig som föredrar Signal har vi skapat en aviseringsgrupp. Obs: Till skillnad från Telegram ser du inte inlägg som gjordes innan du gick med i gruppen. Du får bara våra framtida uppdateringar.

⚠️ Viktig inställning för ditt nummer: I en Signal-grupp kan andra medlemmar tekniskt sett se medlemslistan. Om du vill hålla ditt telefonnummer privat måste du ändra dina inställningar i appen:

  1. Gå till Inställningar > Integritet > Telefonnummer.
  2. Ändra ”Vem kan se mitt nummer” till Ingen.

🐘 MASTODON (Det sociala nätverket)

Mastodon är ett decentraliserat, reklamfritt socialt nätverk liknande X (Twitter), men utan en central ägare och med fokus på användarnas integritet. Vi har valt att ligga på mastodon.nu, en stabil server med nordiskt fokus som drivs inom EU för strikt dataskydd.


Vad händer med kursgrupperna?

Just nu ligger våra kursdiskussioner kvar där de är. Men både Signal och Telegram har utmärkta funktioner för gruppchattar. Vi tittar på möjligheten att flytta specifika kurschattar och diskussionsgrupper till dessa plattformar i framtiden, om/när vi bestämmer oss för att lämna Facebook-grupper helt.

Vi håller också ögonen på andra community-baserade alternativ, men vi vill vara försiktiga med att introducera för många nya appar och ovana gränssnitt på en gång.

Vi ses på andra sidan!
