WHAT WOULD JAZZ BE WITHOUT DANCE?

Dancing at the jazz festival
Ever since the early years of Fest Jazz, music and dance have gone hand in hand! Hundreds of dancers come to swing to the catchy tunes of our artists, while the audience watches in delight. And to ensure the best possible dancing experience, dance floors have been set up in front of the festival’s three stages! It’s enough to get the whole world swinging!
Never danced before? We’ve got you covered!

Fest Jazz invites you to join introductory Lindy Hop workshops led by two professional dancers: Peter & Chloé!
As dance instructors for the Swing du Tonnerre association, Chloé and Peter are in high demand across Europe for numerous workshops and festivals. Full of energy and good humor, they bring a playful approach to Lindy Hop.
They place the relationship between partners at the heart of the dance and emphasize how this enhances both technique and freedom of movement!
With their help, you’ll easily pick up the steps you need to dance at the festival. A warm and friendly experience you won’t want to miss!
Two class levels are offered: “Beginner” (for those taking their first steps in dance) and “Intermediate” (for those who already know the basics of Lindy Hop).
