Elin and Magnus

Lindy Hop Crash Course with Elin and Magnus If you have never tried Lindy Hop before, this is the class for you. We will teach the basic rhythm and steps and a few moves that allow you to dance socially. Our main goal is for everyone to have fun, and to get to know the dance a bit. After class, you are ready to try out the social dance floor. Come join us, with or without a partner. We rotate partners during class.

Enrique and Karoline

Enrique took his first swing dance class in 2005 and quickly became fascinated by both the dancing and the music. He has been teaching since 2012 and enjoys exploring the connections between different swing dance styles, considering himself a swing dancer first and a Lindy Hopper second. As a teacher, he is particularly interested in the fundamentals that make social dancing work: movement, connection, rhythm, and improvisation. He believes that the better your basics become, the more freedom and fun you can have on the dance floor. Enrique has always enjoyed learning about the history of swing dancing and the communities that shaped it, but his favourite part of the dance remains the same as when he started: a good social dance with a good partner. Having benefited from many excellent teachers over the years, he enjoys passing on what he has learned and helping others discover just how much fun these dances can be.

Where to go and what to see!



Nidaros Cathedral

Nidaros Cathedral is a Church of Norway located in the city of Trondheim. Built over the burial site of Saint Olav, the king of Norway in the 11th century, who became the patron saint of the nation. It was built from 1070 to 1300, and designated as the cathedral for the Diocese of Nidaros in 1152. After the Protestant Reformation, it was taken from the Roman Catholics by the Lutheran Church in 1537. It is the northernmost medieval cathedral in the world.
