Classes

Thursday Evening & Friday Classes

Classes will be starting on Thursday evening after dinner, including the Beginner Lindy Hop Crash Course. The Thursday evening and Friday morning schedules will include Lindy Hop classes for all levels as well as some other options to choose from. You will not need to select these classes in advance. These classes are included with the Whole Shebang and also with the optional add-on for the Weekend and Extended Weekend.

Optional class selections continue on Friday afternoon. These classes are open to all registration options. Check the detailed Schedule for more information.

Lindy Hop Track Classes

Lindy Hop Track classes will be starting on Saturday morning and continue through Wednesday. There will be 4 different Lindy Hop tracks to choose between covering a wide range of experience. It is not possible to register for the top level, however there is an audition class on Saturday morning for those who would like to be considered for that track.

When registering, everyone will be asked to select a level based on the Lindy Hop Track descriptions. Instructors look at the tracks as a whole and may move some people up and some people down. It is also possible that there might be a track split made depending on enrollment.

Once at camp, anyone wishing to switch to a lower track can simply ask to be moved. Anyone with other concerns about their track can speak to the instructors at the Lindy Hop Track Questions session on Saturday afternoon. Please note that it is the camp instructors who ultimately determine final Lindy Hop Track placement!

You are to only to take the Lindy Hop Track classes for your designated level, however there is a wide range of other class choices for you to decide among during the non-track periods.

Mini-Track Classes

Mini-Tracks will meet starting Friday evening through Wednesday afternoon. To help determine class room assignments, everyone will be asked to make their selections on the Registration Form, which also provides information on which Mini-Tracks run at the same time.

Regardless of your Mini-Track selection, you will be free to take any optional classes you would like within your experience level. Some of the Mini-Tracks are designed in a progressive format and each class will be aimed at those who are attending the entire series. For all other optional classes, check the class description for experience requirements, if any.

Special Classes

In addition to the above, there are other Special Classes happening throughout the week. Check the Schedule for times. These are open to everyone and you are welcome to just show up!

Dance Spaces

All dance spaces have wooden floors and a change of shoes is requested. It would be best to have some shoe choices if possible. Bring cool, comfortable clothes for classes. All dance spaces are air-conditioned.

One of the class spaces, the Aerobics Room, requires either suede (or chrome leather) soled shoes or clean sneakers to be worn. No leather or hard soled shoes.
