Looking to learn the Lindy Hop? Total beginner or advanced, we have you covered. You don't need a set partner since we rotate partners in class.
We start a new course twice a year, the next one in February 2023. Check back to register by then - and we'll get you hopping in no time!

You can take 1, 2 or even more classes, at no extra cost. The current membership fee is €120,-. Membership lasts for the duration of one block of ca. 19 weekly lessons, spread over ca. 5 months.

House rules
-
Be on time for your lesson. Your teachers and fellow students will appreciate it.
-
Wear dancing shoes with light-coloured soles so you don't leave any marks.
-
Bring a water bottle so we don't have to use the cups in the kitchen. If you do need to use the cups: clean up after yourself.
-
Bring a small towel or 2nd shirt in case things get hot (they probably will).
-
Ask teachers before opening windows. People living upstairs are thankful if we somewhat contain our (rather fantastic) music.
-
Ask for a dance. Just grabbing someones hand is not appreciated. Click here for additional dancing etiquette suggestions.
-
Always be excellent to each other.
