Class Description Info:
This class will take your swing dancing beyond the
basics, but also continue to focus and strengthen solid
technique. We'll expand on previously learned material, adding
different moves and variations to expand on the fundamentals, so you're
learn new material, but also improve your footwork, connection, overall
technique and style. After taking these classes, you'll not only
have more moves, but you'll feel more confident on the social dance floor!
Each 6 week intermediate class series is different and unique, with a
different area of emphasis, so you can take intermediate level classes as
long as you like.
Are there Pre-requisites?
You should be familiar with the 8-count Lindy
Hop (swingout from closed and open, and the Lindy Circle). If you've
taken the Hepcats Beginner Class, you're ready for this class!
Drop Ins. This class
is progressive. Intermediate Class registration is closed
after the second lesson of each class series. This allows students
to progress at a quicker pace, as instructors do not have to repeat lesson
material every time new students drop in.

What about private lessons?
Private lessons are an excellent way to really improve your dancing.
Maybe you
need some extra help with some of material from the beginner class. Or
perhaps you didn't quite get that cool but tricky pattern in the
intermediate class. A private lesson may be just what you need.
A big advantage to private lessons
is that you get individual feedback and attention from working
with the instructors. Private lessons can help solidify your
dancing and help get you to the "next level". Private lessons are
great for learning material not covered in the Hepcats group
classes.
We
all develop "kinks" and bad habits in our swing dancing. Private
lessons are one of the best ways to work those out before they become
ingrained in our technique and "muscle memory". And one of the best
ways to learn to swing dance in the least time is with private lessons.
Private lessons can be arranged for individuals or couples.
