Level 2: This level is suitable for you if you are comfortable and confident with linking moves and social dancing to songs with different tempos. You should have basic grasp of swingouts and lindy Charleston.
Level 3: This level is suitable for you if you have been dancing regularly and frequently for a few years and you want to expand your repertoire with more detailed concepts and ideas within lindy hop.
