Swing fever - Big Band Swing music meets Lindy Hop

You can never have enough Lindy Hop parties - are you ready for the next round?

The Lindy Hop dancers from Swing In Greifswald (Ballhaus Goldfisch) and the big band "Groovties" invite all interested parties to the STRAZE ballroom. Lindy Hop workshop, live concert and swing social, free dancing.

Swing Fever - Big Band swing music meets Lindy Hop
We want to show you what you can imagine by this on this evening from 6.30 pm in the large hall of the STRAZE.

Let the Big Band Groovties and the Lindy Hop section of Ballhaus Goldfisch whisk you away into the world of swing in the ballroom.

Lindy Hop is a dance style from the 1930s in the USA, which naturally includes several dance elements, but is also easy to dance with just a few basic steps. And that's exactly where our evening together starts! In a 1-hour free workshop in the STRAZE hall, you can familiarise yourself with the most important steps of the Lindy Hop under expert guidance. The workshop starts at 6.30 pm.

And to make sure your training wasn't in vain, the big band "Groovties" will be on stage from 8pm with new swing-style songs, which of course go perfectly with Lindy Hop. There will be a total of 3 sets of 30 minutes with live music, with a 30-minute break in between, at least for the big band. Of course, the music will continue to play during the breaks so that the one or other basic step can be internalised again.

After the sets, Charleston and Lindy hits will be played until late into the night until everyone's legs are exhausted.

Refreshing cold drinks are available at the STRAZE bar, and not just during the breaks!
