AUDITIONS
There will be no auditions. If more people register for a particular level than expected, we’ll split the group into two groups based on the order of registration and, if provided, your dance school.
Please be realistic with your level of swing dance knowledge as you sign up.

LEVELS
When you sign up to the Swing Break Camp, we will ask you to register to a specific level. Please read the level descriptions carefully and pick the level that suits you best:

LEVEL 1

You’ve been dancing Lindy Hop regularly for at least a year and attend classes and social parties. You feel comfortable with both, 6 and 8 count rhythms and are familiar with key figures like swing outs, circles, tuck turns, inside and outside turns, and maybe even basic Charleston steps. You’re working on mixing rhythms and refining your technique, connection, and transitions. You can lead or follow basic figures with confidence, though more complex combinations might still present a challenge.

IMPORTANT : This level isn’t for complete beginners – you have to be in regular weekly classes for a few months to be able to attend.

LEVEL 2

You’ve been dancing Lindy Hop for at least 2 years and you actively participate in classes, social dances, and international workshops or camps.

You have a solid social dancing experience and can comfortably lead or follow. You’re confident with swing outs, tuck turns, Charleston transitions, and can keep up with faster tempos as well. You are also familiar with basic solo jazz steps and are starting to experiment with musicality and rhythmical play.

You’re looking to expand your dance vocabulary with more complex variations and footwork while deepening your technique, creativity, and ability to express yourself and follow the music.

Material at this level will challenge you rhythmically, technically, and tempo wise – perfect for dancers ready to push themselves further.

LEVEL 3

You have been dancing for years and you regularly attend classes and night parties, and you’ve already attended several festivals and workshops. You’re very comfortable with everything described at the Intermediate–Advanced level. You can easily combine Lindy Hop and Charleston moves, and you’re confident dancing to both slow and mid-fast tempos, with solid technique, balance, and partner connection.

You learn new material quickly, not just because of your broad vocabulary, but because you understand the connection, partnership, creativity and musicality.

This level is for experienced and passionate dancers who want to deepen their skills, challenge their habits, and enjoy the full freedom of improvisation and expression that swing dancing offers.
