GENERAL INFO
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a Partner?
Nope :) If you do have friends or a partner that also wants to do the classes, then great, bring them along. Rotating in class is optional though so you are certainly welcome to also come by yourself and join in with rotation and dance with everyone else in the class.
How do I join if I’m a beginner?
We run a 6 week beginners block especially for people who have never done any partner dancing before. Find out when the next one starts by visiting our events page then you can book a spot here, or show up 10 mins early to the first class and sign up at the door.
How do I join in with the regular classes?
Just show up at the venue, 10 minutes before the class starts. There’s no need to book for the Lindy 1 or Lindy 2 classes, just show up any week that you want.
How much do classes cost?
Our beginner 6 week block is $95. Then once you’re ready for our drop classes for Lindy 1 or Lindy 2, classes are $20 each. However we do have multi class passes to make it a little cheaper. The 4 class pass is $72 and the 8 class pass is $124.
In saying that, we do not want to exclude anyone just because of their financial position. We have scholarships and other systems in place so if you or anyone you know want to come to classes but have a tight budget, give us an email at info@swingzing.com.
