Popularized in the 1920s, Charleston was one of America’s most free-wheelin’ jazz dances and resurfaces every decade or so (remember the Mashed Potato or Kid N’ Play?) to blow everyone’s freakin’ minds. Come learn the rhythms, frames and movements of this highly versatile dance, as well as some new and fresh concepts Karen and Adam have been cookin' up!

Welcome, grasshopper. Now is the time to move forward with your dancing, to an unknown place that can only be reached after years of practice and meditation. Get your swing-out and Charleston basic ready because we are going to put it to the ULTIMATE CHALLENGE (cue dramatic music).

As the Jazz music of the 1930s started to smooth out and swing, so did the Charleston. Come learn how to seamlessly introduce this dance into the Lindy Hop you already know. We'll teach brand-spankin' new moves, fresh footwork that will engage both beginners and advanced dancers, and techniques you can take home to make up your own great Lindy Charleston combinations!

Do you ever get the feeling that you keep repeating the same things over and over on the dance floor? Everybody does--but we're here to show you how someone else's "same old" moves can be "new and shiny" for you! Stealing moves is awesome, making them your own is even better. Sometimes it's hard to get out of your own "dance box" so we've got a few ideas up our sleeves to spice things up for you.
