LEVELS
Please note! The skill level within a group is bound to vary, and we recommend you keep a positive mindset in order to create a joyful atmosphere for everyone. You'll find more info about all levels below. If you are unsure of which one to pick, please contact us first. Make sure you also check out these other links:
"HEP KITTENS" (LINDY HOP, GROUP 1)
You're fairly new to lindy hop, and have probably danced anywhere from a couple of months to just under a year. You know your basic footwork, and you attend classes on a regular basis. You're curious about the social dance floor (although you may not feel totally comfortable with social dancing just yet). You want to learn more about how to improve your flow, how to dance to the rhythm, and how to add fun variations to your step.
"HEP CATS" (LINDY HOP, GROUP 2)
You have been dancing actively for anywhere between just over a year to a couple of years, and consider yourself an intermediate level dancer. You attend classes as well as social dances on a regular basis. You're familiar with 6- and 8-counts and you're able to mix your basic steps. As an intermediate leader/follower you recognize the importance of practicing your posture and rehearsing the basics. You wish to improve your technique, sense of rhythm, and to learn some fun and challenging new moves. This is a good level to re-visit a couple of times before moving on to the next level.
"WILD HEP CATS" (LINDY HOP, GROUP 3)
To register for this class you should be comfortable at an intermediate-advanced to advanced level. You have been dancing actively for several years. You social dance regularly, and you've attended at least a couple of dance workshops. You have no problem with different tempos, or varying your footwork. You listen to both your partner and the rhythm changes in the music, and you're familiar with other swing related dances such as solo jazz.
