Elijah Ryberg Lindy Hop Classes Mesa

In the beginning Lindy Hop class, the emphasis lies in fostering fundamental footwork skills rather than rote pattern memorization. This approach acknowledges the fluid nature of Lindy Hop, which defies fixed forms and encourages individual interpretation. Specifically designed for beginners, the Lindy Hop Level 1 class offers an extensive repertoire of moves, ensuring a lively and engaging experience when participating in social dances, including a strong foundation in musicality, guiding you to grasp the rhythmic essence of swing music. The Lindy Hop 2 class will take your skill set to the next level and is recommended for anyone who has completed three months of beginning Lindy Hop. 

About the Lesson 

Learn the fundamentals in the beginning Lindy Hop class, then level up after you learn the basic skills in the Intermediate class. 

 

Age Range
The age range at Copper City Swing ranges from twenties to forties, with an emphasis on those in their twenties.
