You’ll be spoiled for choice!
4 levels for LINDY HOP courses:
intermediate
You’ve been dancing Lindy Hop for at least a year and want to learn new combinations and moves to have fun on the dance floor — you already know the main 6- and 8-count moves.
Advanced
You dance Lindy Hop regularly, taking classes and dancing at social dance nights, and you can’t imagine life without it anymore! You’d like to add more and more interesting variations and moves, as well as refine your technique and musicality.
Advanced Plus
You’re an experienced dancer who takes part in numerous workshops and loves challenging yourself. To join this level, you need to be a real Lindy Hop nerd!
INVITATIONAL (NEW!!)
Access to this level is reserved for very experienced dancers and/or teachers, and is by invitation only. If you haven’t been invited to take part at this level, you can apply by writing to festival@swingstudio22.it (you’ll be asked to send us a video).
3 levels for “SOLO JAZZ” courses:
Intermediate
You know the fundamental Charleston steps and the most famous jazz steps, but you want to add style and variations to your dancing.
Advanced
You already have a lot of experience in Solo Jazz and are passionate about it — you’d like to explore rhythms, skills, and play with improvisation.
LIGHTS CAMERA ACTION with Ksenia (NEW!!)
This isn’t a course like the others! It’s a choreography and filming experience where material is prepared in advance, refined together, and brought to life in an actual filmed performance, all guided step by step by Ksenia.
Over the weekend, we’ll focus on stage presence, musicality, and expressiveness, and put together a short video together — then perform it on Sunday evening.
Who it’s for:
Dancers with experience in Solo Jazz from intermediate level and above, who want to challenge themselves.
3 levels for BALBOA courses:
Intermediate
You’ve been dancing Balboa for at least a year, you know the main PureBal and BalSwing moves, and you’d like to add increasingly interesting variations.
Advanced
You dance Balboa regularly, taking classes and dancing at social dance nights. Speed doesn’t scare you, and you’d like to add more and more exciting tricks!
Advanced
You’re an experienced dancer who takes part in numerous workshops and loves challenging yourself. To join this level, you need to be a real Balboa nerd!
Teachers may suggest to the organizers any level changes for the classes, but no participant can change level on their own.
Our advice when choosing a level is not to rush to aim for the highest level, but rather to select the class where you will feel most comfortable dancing and learning without too much difficulty.
Remember that, in any case, you will have the chance to learn from truly exceptional international teachers!
