Description
Want to Learn to Swing Dance?
York Lindy welcomes you to our weekly Lindy Hop classes in the centre of York! Our Beginners class is the perfect place to start - you don’t need a partner or any previous dance experience. This is followed by either a social dance (first Thursday of the month), or our Improvers class (all other Thursdays).
Christmas Jazz Routine - All-Levels (7:30 - 8:30pm)
Join us for our Christmas-themed solo jazz routine - which is now a York Lindy tradition! This is suitable for dancers of all levels, including absolute beginners.
The class costs £8 for the hour (£6 concession, available to students, pensioners and those on benefits); your entry includes the mini-social afterwards for free. We advise booking before turning up, as we do not take payment on the door.
Mini-Social (8:30 - 10:00pm)
After the jazz routine class, we have our mini-social after our beginners class. This is a perfect time to practice what you've learnt in classes. It is open to dancers of all levels.
The mini-social is free for all. We advise booking even though it is free, so that we know who is attending and can manage capacity.
Other Information
We recommend you purchase your ticket online in advance. We do not take payment on the door. If you arrive without a ticket you will be asked to purchase one online via your smartphone.

Experience Levels
- Beginners
-
Beginners starts from the top, introducing you to dances from the 1920s, 30s and 40s. We primarily cover Six Count Lindy Hop, Eight Count Lindy Hop and 1930s Charleston, but also include taster classes in other swing dances.
Absolute beginners are welcome - you don't need a partner or any previous experience. Our friendly teachers will break down the footwork before introducing you to some fun moves!
- Improvers
-
This level is all about giving you the confidence to social dance! It is suitable for anyone wanting to learn more about either lead or follow technique, and who feels ready to tackle some more challenging moves, variations and footwork.
You should feel comfortable with the Eight Count, Six Count and 1930s Charleston footwork patterns, as we will build on these. We will also introduce you to some classic solo jazz routines!
