November 2016: Mini-Series: The Texas Tommy

Depending on who you talk to, the Texas Tommy is either a classic Lindy Hop move based on the framework of a swingout (according to Lindy Hoppers), or it's a name for one of the very first social dances using the 8-count swing rhythm (according to dance historians). Either way, it has a special place in swing dance history. In this class, we'll cover the classic Texas Tommy (the one based on a swingout) and give you some fun variations to try out. 

This Mini-Series is intended for students who have already completed the Lindy 1 curriculum; it may be taken by students concurrently or separately from Lindy 2 or Charleston 2 classes. Mini-Series classes are offered throughout the year on a rotating schedule. They may be taken in any order. No partner is required.
