    Class descriptions

    The WINTER-JUMP Sessions are taught by some of the most experienced teachers in Copenhagen. Most sessions are taught by teachers with more than 20 years of dancing experience, dating back from the early days of Hepcats Copenhagen.

    19.01 - Fast-paced Lindy Hop Routine

    Having attended many-many international workshops across Europe and in Asia, Hanna & Sune will dust off a cool Lindy Hop routine to the sounds of KEEP ON JUMPING. It’s gonna be fast and fun, yet managable for all with at least one season of classes under their belt.
    Requirements: Hepcats Intermediate or similar (at least one season / 3 rounds of dancing experience).
    Note that while original music is fast, we will adjust speed to match the class level.

    These classes target dancers with a solid 8-count LindyHop & Charleston basic, presumably 3+ rounds of active dancing, enabling you to follow Intermediate level classes or higher at Hepcats, Swingshoes or Happy Feet.

In this class we will build on your what you learned during your Intermediate class, adding new fun variations while continuing to build confidence, musicality and flow in your basic steps and moves.

You will learn new and more advanced variations and the tempo will be (even) higher. We look forward to dancing with you!

    Information 'SoloJazz for Beginners with 6+ weeks of LindyHop Experience' Perhaps you’ve learned the Shim Sham and are hungry for more of the same? Perhaps you think it’s time to revisit solo jazz? Perhaps you’re just curious? Anyway: Solo jazz (also known as Authentic Jazz)  is a great and fun way to move to jazz and swing music. It also helps you grow as a Lindy hopper and makes partner dancing even more enjoyable. In this class we will work on some of the most basic jazz steps from the swing era and put them together in short and manageable routines. Steps like
    • Suzy Q
    • Apple Jacks
    • Fall of the log
    • Eagle slide
    • Jump charleston. 
    In this class you will learn basic Jazz rhythms, steps, and easily doable combinations that you can dance alone or put into your Lindy Hop. Come and join us - bring open minds and happy feet (and a bottle of water). We look forward to dancing with you!
    Minimum level requirement This is a class for total jazz beginners. You do not need any previous experience with solo jazz to join this class, but experience with swing or another dance is expected. We expect you to practice during the week when possible, so that a progression can be seen and felt in your dance - so that you get the most out of our classes. Prior dancing at Hepcats is not a requirement, we welcome all Lindy Hoppers as long as you meet the requirements outlined above.
    Signing up with a partner This a solo class so you do not need a partner to sign up.
    Available Discounts We offer a 20% Student discount. Add the coupon code “STUDENT” at check-out.
