Jo and Kevin live and breathe Lindy Hop with their passion for celebrating life through dance.

More at http://joandkevin.com/ BEGINNERS AND BOOTCAMP You can buy their teaching videos OR you can come for their workshop!! :) Schedule We are lucky that they have a spare weekend in their busy schedule to spend with us. This weekend has been designed to let you take advantage of their short time here. There are 2 tracks - Beginner and Bootcamp. Beginners is for people who have 0-6 months of Lindy hop. In this track you can take the Open classes as well. Bootcamp is for everyone else. It's called Bootcamp because you can/should take all the classes, from Beginner to Open to Bootcamp. It really is an eyeopener to hear how Kevin and Jo approach basic concepts like connection and bounce. And if it can work for a beginner, hey it might even break and get through all those old bad habits of yours :p There are no meals provided, and the Resort is a little remote if you dont have a car. There is a nearby restaurant but if we all descend on them at the same time, the kitchen will not cope and service will be slow. In view of this , we will go cater dinner for both nights, @ S$16 per head per night. Please email [email protected] to confirm if you would like either/both Sat and Sun dinner. Please reply by Monday 1 Oct latest so i can arrange the catering. You can pay us cash when we see you on Friday night at JItterbugs Swingapore!
