Forest City Swing will start teaching the Lindy Hop on Thursday nights starting this Thursday 3/4/10!  Lindy Hop is a more diverse and fun dance,  a little difficult to learn, but don’t worry, we will be teaching Lindy for begginners.  We believe you will like the Lindy Hop even better than the 6-count.  Admission is still the same.  Every week we will be teaching 45 minutes of Lindy Lessons.  Be there on time as with the Lindy, it is very difficult to “jump in” on the lessons if you are late.  See you all there!

Weekend Lindy Hop Workshops! June 4th & 5th

We will host Laura Keat and Jeremy Otth from California for a weekend of workshops!  We will post all the details and registration information on our website very soon so come back to our website to get updates.  If you would like to know who the instructors are you can view their information on their website  www.fastandfancyfeet.com.
