- California Routines: 22nd Nov – 13th Dec. The California Routine is a classic lindy hop routine, which draws on all of the fundamentals of lindy hop, including 6 beat, 8 beat and charleston footwork. It includes some small lifts and is often used as a performance routine. You will need to have a good grasp of the fundamentals of lindy hop and be comfortable with swingouts for this course.
Upcoming Courses in 2024:

This course will give you a good number of moves and the technique to social dance with a partner. Perfect for beginners or lindy hoppers looking for some new moves to add to their repertoire.
