Southampton Swing Dancers
We are a new society for lindy hop at the University of Southampton. Lindy hop is a fun and stylish partner dance with great swing music. Join us and learn cool moves, meet lovely people and enjoy the dance floor
WHAT TYPE OF DANCE DO WE DO?
We teach Lindy Hop which is a social dance that originated in Harlem in the 1920s-40s. It is an improvised, lively coupled dance to Swing music. It is an amazing dance and a wonderful community of people who help you push yourself as you learn new moves and techniques and become comfortable with the joy of social dancing.
