Pat Cross and Don Krotser 3 November 2018 Crete When Greece was still a kingdom, more than 50 years ago, I once wandered into a restaurant in Iraklion (Herákleion), the capital of Crete, upon hearing that they had a little folk dance show for the tourists. Three dancers: the woman was good, one of the men not, but the other man blew me away. Not only was he skilled, but with his tall slender figure, wasp waist, and dark curls, he looked as if he had leapt straight off a Minoan fresco from 1500 BCE in the nearby archaeological museum (Fig.

  • Lindy Hop DANCE FLOOR) Hop (As Well As Other Types of Swing Dance)
    Lindy Hop News Worldwide Volume 3 Issue 1 - January 1996 The Hoppin Birthday Party But once there, what a fabulous venue: wooden floor, high ceiling, gallery, life-size model of Elvis the Pelvis. Not to mention three of the best swing DJs around - Tim's Jumpin' Jive, Vernon'sSwingmatism and, of course, Ronnie Slide. What more could a girl want? Before long the night was jumping. The dance floor was a blur of frenzied arms and legs, as uninhibited couple after uninhibited couple swung out to the non-stop sounds. Highlight of the evening was an impromptu jam session by jazz dancer Alex George and the inimitable Cookie, aka Angela Andrews. I had no idea there could be so much 'Lindy' in 'Latin'! We were still rompin' at midnight. My poor feet didn't know what had hit them. The climax of the evening came with the raf­ fle, that I unfortunately did not win, and the ceremonial cutting of the Hoppin' birthday cake, baked by Cookie's mother. One consolation for all those of you that missed out on all this fun is that, as I write this, there are only 347 days until the next one! Ed note: Our thanks to all who worked so hard to make this event happen - the Hoppin' staff( and Cookie's mom')- and to our out-of­ t own attendees, who read about it in Hoppin'!

  • Whitey's Lindy Hopper's Speed & Performance Lindy
    January WORKSHOPS Special 3 Week Workshop Seminar Whitey’s Lindy Hopper’s Speed & Performance Lindy with Bobby White & Akemi Kinukawa PART I: Tuesday’s January 7th, 14th, 21st 6:30p-7:30p (PART II will be Tuesday’s February 11th, 18th, 25th) Dive into the tech - niques and styling of the greatest pioneers of Lindy Hop perform - ance. Champion dancers and seasoned performers Bobby and Akemi will focus on concepts and choices the Whitey’s made that work great for high- speed dancing and jamming. Both Part I and Part II will be three classes each, and both parts will cover a lot of different material from each other. Each part will contain fundamental movement and moves, a Whitey’s Charleston pattern, and a simple, small optional Air Step that will teach the basics of safe and powerful flying. Though both Part I and II are meant to be companions, it is not necessary to do one in order to do the other. Bobby White is a world traveling instructor of Lindy Hop, Balboa, and Solo Jazz, and is a Jazz historian. Akemi Kinukawa teaches dance throughout the boroughs of New York and has performed at Jazz at Lincoln Center. She is the founder of Project Connect, a charitable swing dance performance company. They are both members of the Whitey’s inspired performance group, The Harvest Moon Hoppers, sponsored by YSBD..! Studios.
