*Slovember – A Mini Course in Slow Swing
You’ve got the faster tempos down – now it’s time to explore the slower side of Swing.

This 4-week Slow Swing mini course is designed for dancers who feel confident in their Lindy Hop (or Balboa!), but find slower tempos a bit of a mystery. Because not every song calls for bounce and speed — some ask for stretch, control, and connection. Dancing slow isn’t about doing less; it requires a different kind of movement, musicality, and presence.

Together with Deirdre and Joost (international Slow Bal and Swing teachers), we’ll explore how to adapt your dancing to slower jazz music, focusing on movement quality, body awareness, and musical expression. Expect a mix of technique, inspiration, and creativity — all tailored to making the most of the music when the tempo drops.

When: Tuesdays in November – 4, 11, 18, 25
Time: 20:40 – 21:40 hr
Where: Swing in Rhythm, Willem Buytewechstraat 34, Rotterdam
Level: Blue or above (minimum 1 year of Lindy Hop experience – not suitable for beginners)
Roles: Fixed roles – register as lead or follow. If you register as switch, we will assign you a role.
