Also, Tayla and partner in crime will dive with you into the glamorous world of social dancing and floorcraft Are you uncomfortable asking someone to dance? Or do you keep hitting other dancers when you are on the social dancefloor? Tayla and Sid share the secrets of enjoying an injury-free Lindy party and top it off with some Charleston moves.
Last but not least, perhaps some of you remember the awesome Lindy What anniversary routine aka The What’s Hop by Ari and Simon? Tayla and Linda learned it and are ready to show you the moves so we can dance the routine all together during What’s Hop!! Forget how awesome this routine is? Check it out here: https://youtu.be/_csoBmbeTJw?feature=shared
Please note, the What’s Hop routine is more difficult than the Shim Sham, so you should have some intermediate dancing experience for this workshop!

Second week (09 February): Workshops
Third week (16 February): What’s Hop
