The Age of Swing I & II

 

This class will introduce students to the dances popularized during the Harlem Renaissance and Big Band Era. The Lindy Hop and the Jive were fast paced partner dances that incorporate lifts and turns. After time these dances evolved and were often incorporated in modern, pop, hip hop, and Chicago Stepping choreography. TAS I- will focus on the foundation of Swing, Lindy Hop and Jive moves. TAS II- will focus on the adaptation of these moves that are also included in Chicago Stepping.
