Newbies
This level is intended for everyone who has just started with swing but already knows the basic steps (groove walk, triple steps) and can combine them in various ways. We expect the knowledge of basic figures, such as tuck turn, side pass, send out etc.
Intermediate/Advanced
You have been going to Lindy Hop classes for at least 12 months and you have attended a few local workshops already. You feel comfortable with mixing some basic rhythms: groove walk, Charleston, triple steps. You are comfortable in a swingout and you’re able to dance some swingout variations. Dancing in a 170 BPM tempo is no problem for you (e.g. Wednesday Night Hop by Andy Kirk or Take the A-Train by Duke Ellington).
Advanced
Can you dance in any tempo – super-slow or extra-fast (100–210 BPM)? You feel comfortable in the basics but at the same time you’re able to add many variations to your dance? You can feel the music and connect with it, play with the rhythms and body movements. Rather than just figures, you’re more interested in the quality and essence of the dance.
Master
Can you honestly call yourself a Lindyhopper? You visit international festivals and workshops and most probably also teach Lindy Hop in your local school or you’re a member of a dance group. You are basically able to dance as both lead and follow. On one hand, you feel that you’re very experienced, on the other hand, you may feel the need to practice swingout again… 😉
