WORKSHOP:<\/h1>\n

2 levels with top international teachers Rikard Ekstrand and Frida Borg from Sweden, both of Harlem Hot Shots fame.<\/p>\n

We are delighted to welcome Rikard Ekstrand and Frida Borg. Both have extensive experience with Lindy Hop at the highest level, both in performance, competition and as teachers \u2013 and they are also incredibly pleasant and friendly. You can enjoy them here (Frida in the two-piece black and white dress, Rikard in the gold shirt): https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hKoKs-UzBnM<\/a>. Or enjoy Rikard\u2019s social dancing in a competition context here: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=OcI6g-qaZ_s<\/a><\/p>\n

10 \u2013 12.30: Level Frankie (Intermediate)<\/h1>\n

Level description:<\/h2>\n

To join, you should be familiar with basic 6- and 8-count variations, comfortable doing swingouts, and have tried some basic jazz steps and a routine like Shim Sham. You should have attended classes regularly for at least 6 months and be curious about working with concepts such as musicality.<\/p>\n

14.00 \u2013 16.30: Workshop: Level Norma (Experienced = Intermediate Advanced\/Early Advanced and up)<\/h1>\n

Level description:<\/h2>\n

You have been dancing for at least a year and attend classes and social dances regularly (yes, you need to be active on the social dance floor to qualify \ud83d\ude42 ). You are comfortable with medium to fast music, have a repertoire of solo jazz steps and have probably done routines like Trankeydoo or Big Apple. Your focus is on the quality of your movement, rhythm and communication with your partner rather than learning new moves and you\u2019re ready for a challenge in these areas.<\/p>\n

Party<\/h1>\n

The workshop is followed by a dinner and a party with two dance-floors and Dusty Rag playing 3 sets of music for dancers.<\/p>\n
