We’re changing the way our Lindy Hop levels work!
From now on, our programme will have 5 broader class levels:
From now on, students on Lindy Beginners and Lindy Improvers will normally stay on each level for 4 months before moving up.
The material still changes every 2 months, so you will continue learning new steps, rhythms and ideas throughout the level.
After 4 months, you can move on to the next level if you feel ready. If you would like a little more time to build confidence and make the material feel comfortable, you are also welcome to stay for another 2 months before moving on.
Read more about each level below:
Description
Lindy Beginners is our introduction to Lindy Hop and covers the foundations of the dance.
You will learn how to lead and follow, dance comfortably with different partners, and build a vocabulary you can use on the social dance floor. During the course we work with the essential Lindy Hop rhythms and movements, including 6-count and 8-count patterns, Swingouts and Charleston.
The material changes every 2 months, so during your time on Beginners you will work with different steps, rhythms and ideas.
Level Guidance
This class is for complete beginners. No previous dance experience is needed.
You normally spend 4 months on Lindy Beginners before moving to Lindy Improvers. If you would like more time to feel comfortable with the material, you are very welcome to stay for another 2 months.
Partner Rotation
There is partner rotation in our Lindy Beginners classes, helping you develop your leading and following skills with different dancers.
Description
Lindy Improvers builds on the foundations from Lindy Beginners and expands your Lindy Hop vocabulary and technique.
You will work further with Swingouts, Charleston and 6- and 8-count dancing, while adding new turns, variations, footwork and ways of connecting the movements you already know.
The material changes every 2 months, giving you new things to work on throughout the level.
Level Guidance
You should have completed Lindy Beginners before joining.
You normally spend 4 months on Lindy Improvers before moving to Lindy Explorers. You are also welcome to stay another 2 months if you would like more repetition and confidence before moving on.
If you come from another school, choose Lindy Improvers if you already feel comfortable with the basic Lindy Hop rhythms and movements, including Swingouts and Charleston.
Description
Lindy Explorers is for intermediate dancers who are ready to broaden their Lindy Hop and explore the dance in more depth.
The class has a new theme every 2 months, allowing us to focus on different areas of Lindy Hop – for example technique, musicality, connection, footwork, Charleston, variations or more complex movement.
This is a level you can continue taking for many rounds. Each new theme gives you a different challenge and another way to develop your dancing.
Themes in Round 4, 2026
Learn new moves, rhythms and movement ideas – and discover how to make them really fit the music.
In this course, we’ll work with fun combinations and mini choreographies while exploring different ways of responding to rhythm, phrasing, breaks, melodies and changes in the music.
Along the way, we’ll play with groove, scatting, call & response, contrasts in movement and different musical layers – giving you both new material for your dancing and more freedom to play with the music.
Level Guidance
You should have completed Lindy Improvers before joining Lindy Explorers.
There is no fixed amount of time you need to stay on Explorers. We encourage you to take several different themes and build a broad range of skills before moving towards our highest-level classes.
If you come from another school and are unsure whether Explorers is the right level for you, you are welcome to come to our Level Placement.
Description
Lindy Lab is our highest regular Lindy Hop level.

Collegiate Shag is a fun and playful dance that you can dance to fast music. And if you already dance Lindy Hop or Balboa then you can learn shag very quickly and use many of the figures and techniques you already know.
This course is both for complete shag beginners and for people who have danced shag for a while and want to learn cool new moves and techniques. Even if you have taken this class before, there will be new things for you.
In this course you we will get you into shag quickly, including:
– The shag basic step (it’s even easier than Lindy or Bal)
– How to take all the figures you know from lindy hop and put them in shag
– Even more amazing shag figures
– Musicality, breaks and creativity/playfulness
We will also focus on how to make your shag chill and relaxed at fast tempos so you can keep dancing for longer.

This solo jazz class will be open level. It takes place every Wednesday at 17.20 and you can simply show up the weeks you are able. Every week will be a stand alone class so it’s fine not to be there every week. The class will in September-October be taught by the always inspiring Sara Bang!
Open Level means, that there is space for complete beginners, as well as improvers of solo dancing and experienced dancers. The focus will be on dancing! Dancing to the music, dancing together and dancing with our whole body – something dancers on any level should be working on. There will also be time for deep diving into details and some fun choreos to ease the brain.
This class is for free for everyone who takes other classes at Happy Feet Studio.

Discover the rhythm of tap – no tap shoes needed! In this Soft Shoe Tap class, Xavier will introduce you to tap rhythms, footwork and musicality using regular shoes. It’s a great introduction to tap dancing, but also perfect for Lindy Hoppers who want to bring new rhythms, steps and techniques straight into their dancing. You’ll also explore skills such as pirouettes, solo jumps and turns, building coordination, balance and control along the way. And if you catch the tap bug, you can continue afterwards into our regular tap classes with tap shoes.
Level Guidance
No previous experience required. We go through basic steps, we dance some nice choreographies, and we introduce you to the very beginning of improvisation.

Be brave and come sing with us in Happy Feet’s fun, cozy, and wildly inclusive swing choir for all levels. We’re all about multi-part, swingy tunes that make your feet tap and your face smile—whether you’re a seasoned choir fox or a curious shower-singing human.
We do use sheet music… but you don’t need to be able to read notes. We also rehearse using voice recordings for each part, so you can learn by listening and vibing your way into the harmony.
Along the way, we play and nerd out with:
* Swing styles & groove
* dynamics that actually mean something
* healthy, happy voice technique
The pace is lively and energizing, but with room to zoom in, and lovingly polish the juicy details.
Come as you are. Bring your voice. We’ll handle the rest. 
Dates: November 3rd – December 17th
