Crash Course in Lindy Hop
Here’s your chance to try out the insanely fun partner dance Lindy Hop from the swing era for just over an hour, a collaboration between Studieförbundet Vuxenskolan, Campus, Varberg Tech Arena, and the World Heritage Grimeton. Lindy Hop, or Jitterbug, as the dance was also called, is danced to wonderful swing jazz and is based on musicality, creativity, and the joy of movement. In this crash course with Jenny Ammilon, you’ll taste the joy and groove and learn some simple steps and figures to take with you to the dance floor.
Come with or without a partner. If you come alone, you’ll be paired with someone, and you should be prepared to try both leading and following.
About Jenny Ammilon
Jenny Ammilon, who leads the courses, is appreciated for her clear pedagogy, dance enthusiasm, and ability to help individual participants at their own level. She has danced Lindy Hop and other swing dances for many years and taught at West Coast Jitterbugs in Gothenburg.
This is Campus and Varberg Tech Arena’s way of celebrating Grimeton Radio Station’s anniversary #100yearsofcommunication. We’re gearing up for the party of the century this spring where you can dance your heart out and feel the “roaring 20s” and the wonderful 1920s spirit. On Saturday, April 12, we are organizing the 1920s-inspired party Great Grimeton Party at Societén in Varberg.
