We'll be continuing to teach the Flash Mob routine on the other side of the wall. The lesson is only 15 minutes long, it takes place during the dance, and it's free! Come learn it even if you missed the previous weeks; it's fun and easy and we totally gonna perform it this summer!

2. May Classes: Gilles & Idalia! Eliott & Lori! Tap with Audrey!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
7:15-8:15pm
*** Tap for Lindy Hoppers: w/ Audrey ***
Rhythm is king, and what better way to get in synch with the music than to create it with our feet! We'll learn some basic building blocks, combine them to make some classic steps, improvise a little and learn tap shim sham. Learn to use your body and control you weight changes in a whole new and fantastically deliberate way.
Please note: soft shoes only. No taps on the studio's floor!
*** LEVEL 2: Tandem & Hand-to-Hand Charleston w/ Gilles & Idalia ***
If you have ever ridden a tandem bike, you know that you first have to find your balance by yourself, and then together. But once you find it, you get to share a whole new partnership experience! This month, we will show you how to get on and off your Charleston tandem, and play with fun variations. Come and join us, no bike or helmet required! But wait, there's more. We will also play with hand-to-hand Charleston, one of our favorites, it's like a super handshake for lindy hoppers only!
8:15-9:15pm
*** LEVEL 1: 6 & 8-Count w/ Eliott & Lori ***
This is the good stuff! 6-count moves are fun and easy ways to rock out to the rhythm, featuring simple turns and spins for maximum follow flair and neat wraps and turns for the leads. We'll transition to 8-count footwork halfway through and teach you how to mix and match your new moves with ease.
*** LEVEL 3: Moves To Inspire You w/ Gilles & Idalia ***
This month, Gilles & Idalia will select moves from some of the Lindy Hop superstars and teach them to you to inspire you. They will deconstruct them to show you how they "work" and what makes them look so cool. They will make sure that there is equal material for leaders and followers.
