Sehr cooler Kurs, ich fand die Beiden leitenden Personen sehr Kompetent und eingespielt. Sie haben einem immer weitergeholfen und haben die Schritte sehr ausführlich erklärt. Was ich ebenfalls sehr toll fand, ist, dass sie bereits etwas auf die Form und Technik eingegangen sind und nicht nur gezeigt haben in welcher Reihenfolge man die Schritte machen muss.

Thore and Marina are great teachers! It's easy to follow their explanations; they have found a good balance between dry runs and dancing to music, all while providing just the right amount of feedback. They're also approachable and fun. I would definitely join one of their courses again.

less talking and more danceing :)
07. Feb. 2024, 17:10 Solo Charleston with Luisa Barbanti, Room: UZH Zentrum, Untere Mensa
it's a really nice course to get to know the charleston! I've learned a bunch of cool steps and moves, which I can include in any kind of swing dance I think :)
06. Feb. 2024, 12:35 Solo Charleston with Luisa Barbanti, Room: UZH Zentrum, Untere Mensa
The course was great even for beginner dancers. Luisa brought a lot of energy into it and her excitement was really contagious. All in all a lot of fun!
06. Feb. 2024, 01:09 Solo Charleston with Luisa Barbanti, Room: UZH Zentrum, Untere Mensa
If you are looking for a fun and relaxed atmosphere while also getting a bit of workout, this is the right course. No experience in other dances needed either. Would definitely take again <3

Luisa is a great teacher. She breaks down the steps, which makes it easy to follow and fun to learn.
14. Dec. 2023, 15:52 Lindy Hop 4 with Matej Pavlovic & Luisa Barbanti, Room: UZH Zentrum, GLT A-02
the cours adds perfect to the previous courses and you can learn some pretty cool advanced looking moves. I liked it a lot! I think that both Matej and Luisa did a great job, can recommend a lot :)
23. Nov. 2023, 15:12 Lindy Hop Crash Course with Matej Pavlovic & Luisa Barbanti, Room: Hönggerberg, HXE
Top, Loads of Fun!
21. Nov. 2023, 09:34 Lindy Hop 3 with Luisa Barbanti & Matej Pavlovic, Room: UZH Zentrum, GLT A-02
Ich mochte den Kurs sehr! Matej und Luisa sind super sympathisch und mir gefiel der Schwerpunkt auf Charleston und dass wir damit eine ganz neue Seite von Lindyhop kennengelernt haben. Nach dem Tanzkurs habe ich immer so gute Laune :)
27. Oct. 2023, 18:51 Lindy Hop 1 with Luisa Barbanti & Matej Pavlovic, Room: UZH Zentrum, GLT A-02
Super angenehme, fröhliche und lockere Stimmung
27. Oct. 2023, 17:05 Lindy Hop 1 with Luisa Barbanti & Matej Pavlovic, Room: UZH Zentrum, GLT A-02
Such a fun dance, such cool teachers. I would definitely recommend!
14. July 2023, 08:08 Solo Charleston with Luisa Barbanti, Room: UZH Zentrum, Untere Mensa
Gut um erste Einblicke in Solo Charleston zu bekommen. Kurs auch geeignet bei keiner Tanzerfahrung.
14. June 2023, 21:23 Solo Charleston with Luisa Barbanti, Room: ETH Zentrum, CAB F21 (StuZ)
Easy basic steps to learn, many more difficult steps can be integrated. Charleston is a like a workout when you really put energy into it. Try it, it's fun and the steps are very forgiving.
12. June 2023, 13:36 Solo Jazz with Luisa Barbanti, Room: UZH Zentrum, GLT A-03
Lusia is a very enthusiastic and passionate solo jazz-teacher/dancer! Really great class to learn the basics and cool combinations out of them! May be a bit too easy if you have some experience in solo-jazz already:)
