The music will be general swing with a Balboa and Shag edge. Basie, Goodman, Shaw and some current bands like Campus Five, Carolina Reapers, Michael McQuaid’s Red Hot Rhythm Makers to name a few.
Not necessarily. Balboa and Shag, like Lindy Hop (or any dance) can be fast, slow and everything in-between. There will be a wide range of speeds, though you might find the majority of the music for social dancing skews a little faster than you’d expect in a Lindy Hop class.
Sure! We’re not the dance police; there are no restrictions on what you dance. Just come and dance!
No. Just come along and pay at the door.
