Wednesday, September 30 · 2 hours · Beginner-Intermediate & All Levels
Come dance with Bailey and Nathan for a fun, high-energy Lindy Hop intensive focused on movement, rhythm, flow, and feeling good in your body.
This is a special treat for our newer dancers: a chance to spend two hours learning and dancing with visiting instructor Bailey McCully while she’s here in San Francisco.
We’ll learn a little choreography, play with different ways to move through it, and add some simple opportunities for improvisation along the way. Expect lots of dancing, watching, doing, repeating, and gradually putting the pieces together—with less talking and more moving.
Whether you’ve recently started Lindy Hop or you’re an early intermediate dancer looking to feel more comfortable and connected to the dance, this class is designed to help you get into your body, find the rhythm, and experience the flow of Lindy Hop.
Come ready to move, play, and dance!

LOCATION
Cat’s Corner at the On Broadway Ballroom. 435 Broadway Street, San Francisco, 94133
Bailey McCully – Bellingham, Washington
Bailey is a Lindy Hop and jazz dancer, teacher, performer, and organizer known for precise, deeply musical dancing and a wonderfully playful approach to movement.
She’s especially interested in fast Lindy Hop, jazz movement, improvisation, creative shapes, and personal expression. Her teaching combines strong technique with curiosity: not just how to execute something, but how to play with it, reshape it, and make it your own.
Her dancing reflects a deep appreciation for Lindy Hop’s history and culture while leaving plenty of room for silliness, experimentation, and surprise.
Nathan Dias – San Francisco, CA
Nathan is the owner and house instrunctor of Cat’s Corner, where he teaches weekly Lindy Hop classes and runs San Francisco’s Wednesday-night dance.
His teaching centers on rhythm, musicality, connection, improvisation, and the jazz roots of Lindy Hop. He especially likes ideas that seem simple at first but keep revealing more as your dancing develops.
Rather than giving students more patterns to memorize, Nathan aims to help dancers understand what’s happening—so they can listen, respond, improvise, and make choices of their own.
