Lil' Rhody Lindy Hop is a dance organization that is focused on spreading the joy of Lindy Hop and building a vibrant community of dancers in an inclusive space, with a focus on rhythm, movement, and historical context. When you attend our events you can expect the following:
- Sign in Sheet and Waiver: We will have a sign in sheet at the door and a waiver for all first-time dancers to sign. We have a sign in sheet for all dancers to sign when they attend
- Changing Partners in class: In our Lindy Hop classes we never expect our students to bring a dance partner with them. Additionally dancing with a variety of people is not only the point of social dancing, but the best way to improve your skills. As such we will rotate partners during classes.
- Role Signaling Wristbands: Because dance roles are not gendered, at our social dances we have colored wristbands to indicate dance roles. Followers are coded as yellow, Leaders are coded as Red, and people who dance both are coded as Green. We not make assumptions of people's dance roles based on their presentation and this system is helpful in finding who knows how to dance with you!
- Code of Conduct and Etiquette: which is enforced to keep the members of our community safe and comfortable
- Safe Space: In line with our Code Of Conduct, we expect all members of our community to be respectful of each other's identities and will not tolerate discrimination or disrespect towards any identity including but not limited to: race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, disability, age, or any other part of their identity. Please do not attend if you cannot abide by this.
