Lindy hop dancers

Learn to dance Lindy Hop, the original Jive dance.

Not only is dancing fun and good for you physically and mentally, but research indicates a 76% reduced risk of dementia https://www.lifehack.org/374710/5-things-that-will-happen-to-your-brain-when-you-dance. So its a win win.

Lindy Hop originated in the 1920's and 30's in Harlem, New York and became popular in the UK during the war years. Since then Lindy Hop has enjoyed a revival and has become a hugely popular partner dance.

There is no need to bring a partner. Everyone is welcome including those with two left feet :-)

Classes are on every Wednesday night at Bar74 in Union Street Ryde from 7pm - 8pm and every fortnight there is a live band after the class to practise your moves. £5 per class.
