Maybe you've already seen Jammin' the Blues, but we can thank Andy Lewis for taking it to the next level: "Currently, it's only available in standard definition (480p) - so I have spent a while upscaling it to 2K and 60 fps, and enhancing it to try and do this beautiful film the justice it deserves."
Every shot is a piece of art, every note swings so hard, every step feels like joy...

Hello, friends! We have another Lindy Lab this Thursday, November 10, and it will be the only LL this month. Before you come to dance, we ask that you download/set up CashApp to help us streamline our rent payments to Empower Dance Studio. We would like to transition fully to CashApp in the new year.

Come to the Lindy Lab tonight and swing out with DJs Allison Meeks and Laura Windley!
Your DJs this week are plotting and scheming to bring you super special seasonal and surprise selections of music this Thursday, October 27!
1) We still need hosts for this dance and the upcoming dances in November and December. Opening and closing is very easy and we have people who can help you walk through it the first time, a list to remind you of the things, and free admission. Message us here on the LL page or message Paul Baxter if you are interested in this week or talk to one of the LL organizers at the dance this week.
2) Remember to bring a water bottle with you and to leave the dance with your water bottle (although, we'll do our best to reunite you if you forget the latter).
3) We started mask optional last week and will continue with mask optional this week.
See you soon!
| 8pm - 10:30pm |
