Summer 2025 CLASSES

Introduction to Charleston

Charleston is an energetic swing dance with a rich history, originating in the 1920s. Named after the town of Charleston in South Carolina, this dance shares its roots in African-American culture, much like Lindy Hop. In this class, we will explore various forms of Charleston, including the 30s, hand-to-hand, and tandem Charleston, as well as how to include it in our Lindy Hop dancing. This course is perfect for dancers who have completed our Beginner, Beginner Plus, or Intermediate courses. If you have previous dance experience, or have completed Lindy 3, and would like to join, please email us for availability.

We rotate partners in class – this means you also can join the class if you don’t have a dance partner.

Duration: 4 classes
Time: Tuesdays, 19:15 – 20:15
