Intermediate Intensive

Refining your leading & following

Swing Dance

The Intermediate Intensive workshop follow the format of our popular beginner’s intensive program. In 3.5 hours, this course thoroughly covers the important principles of creating connection with your partner.



Class A & B: Flawless leading & following

The intermediate intensive is a 3.5 hour weekend workshop offered each month that covers Lindy Hop connection principles, spin & turn techniques, practice methods, and more.

Topics Covered
  • Connection Principles and Partner Communication
  • Frame Basics and Techniques
  • Leading Clearly
  • Following Truthfully
  • Mixing 6 & 8 Counts
  • Techniques for Spins & Turns
  • Creating Flow
  • Practice Methods

This workshop is designed for people who have been swing dancing for less than a year or about a year, and/or have completed the beginner’s intensive program. You’ll experience a greater level of freedom in your understanding once you master these techniques.


Class C: Cool Moves and Tricks

Cool Moves and Tricks

This class teaches cool moves, slides and tricks for lindy hop and charleston. The C class assumes that the student knows and can use the connection/lead and follow techniques of the A and B classes. The focus of this class is on the moves so we will not cover connection techniques in detail. Please take the A and B classes for connection, lead and follow. This is an intermediate level class. You should be familiar with mixing 6 and 8 count moves freely. Swingouts are required for this class.
Note: Shoes that you can slide in are recommended for this class.
