Here are some of the most common questions about getting started, using our lesson player features, getting feedback, and managing your account. If you have additional questions send us a message using the support widget in the lower right of the screen.
GETTING STARTED
[mks_accordion]
[mks_accordion_item title=”Where do I start if I am a total beginner?”]
If you are an absolute beginner, we recommend starting with Intro to Swing to kick things off fun and easy, then move to Basic Swing – Level 1 which continues and deepens on what you learn in Intro.[/mks_accordion_item]
[mks_accordion_item title=”Where do I start if I am experienced?”]
If you are looking for something cool, short, and progressive, we recommend trying a Challenge. This will be a great way to quickly see what level you’re at since it’s progressive rounds. Try to get to the end, and if you can’t then get to work on some foundation!
[/mks_accordion_item]
[mks_accordion_item title=”What styles do you teach?”]We teach most styles under the umbrella of Swing Dancing. This includes Solo Jazz, and the partner dancing styles Basic Swing, Lindy Hop, Charleston, Balboa, and Collegiate Shag.[/mks_accordion_item]
[mks_accordion_item title=”What is Basic Swing?”]
Basic Swing is the most common form of social dancing that people seem to be doing without extensive training or lessons. Some people call it east coast swing, single step, 6ct swing, and all sorts of stuff. We have defined it technically as having low momentum, more fixed patterns, and have designed to be extremely easy and fun.
[/mks_accordion_item]
[mks_accordion_item title=”What Level am I? Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced? “]
We are working on getting all of our content leveled, but it is still subjective so the only way to know if something is right for you is to click on it and watch a bit. In general, Beginner means it’s good for anyone who has completed Intro to Swing. Intermediate is going to be for people with a lot of experience with lessons and social dancing. Advanced is truly difficult both physically, mentally, and technically. Ridiculous is exactly that.
In our programs, which are under construction right now, we are going to be offering Level 1, 2, and 3 certifications. This are different than levels since they will define a particular set of skills and accomplishments.
