The workshops are taught by Swingland founder Martin Ellis and regular Swingland teachers.
Beginners workshops - beginners swing dance (Lindy hop)
Covering fundamental Lindy hop steps and rhythms, these workshops are an excellent introduction to the dance, as well as a great way to consolidate your basics. Suitable for absolute beginners.
