Kortrijk, Belgium

3 days – One teacher couple – Real progress.

Lindy Hop · Solo Jazz · Social Dance

Lift your dancing to a higher level witch Ariadna Beltran & Simon Bressanelli.
Not another festival. Deep-dive weekend made for dancers that want to dig deep. Three days to become a better dancer.

Early Bird discount!

During October, we’re offering an Early Bird discount to the first 15 people who register for each workshop day! So if you want to sign up, don’t wait too long. Once the first 15 spots for a workshop day are gone, the prices will go up.

For us, that early-bird offer is about more than just a discount. Organizing an international weekend entails significant costs. By registering early, you give us the assurance that there is sufficient interest, allowing us to proceed with organizing the weekend with peace of mind. We will decide in early November whether or not this event will go ahead.

So, if you already know you want to join us, your early-bird registration helps make this weekend possible.

And that makes us very happy. ❤️

Why an Intensive?

Festival classes are great, but they often leave little room for progression and depth. At The Cherry Dots, we believe in learning from world-class international teachers with a solid, structured approach and plenty of time to dive deep.

That is why we are building a weekend that truly works:

One top couple teaching all classes — for maximum depth
12 hours of Lindy Hop + 3 hours of styling & variations
Clear technique, rhythm, flow & musicality
Intensive sessions — up to 6 hours per day
Everything at one location for peace and focus
Warm, safe, and pedagogically strong teaching

Perfect for intermediate to advanced dancers who want to grow and refine their skills and community leaders that want to nerd out about technique, dynamics and background of the dance.

Programme

Friday 29 January

19h – 22h: Lindy Hop Footwork & Variations (Int.-Adv.)

OC Lange Munte – Beeklaan 81, Kortrijk

Let’s explore the rhythmical aspect of the dance and play with variations in your Lindy Hop.

This workshop will focus on the rhythmical side of the dance: footwork variations that add character and texture. The aim is to help you find more musicality and personal expression in your dancing, and stand out from the crowd. In our dance, good rhythm usually feeds into good technique, so emerge a better dancer too!

Saturday 30 January

10h – 17h30: 6u Lindy Hop Intensive (Int.-Adv.)

OC Lange Munte – Beeklaan 81, Kortrijk

For the dedicated dancer who has moved well beyond the basics and is ready for true refinement. You have a solid vocabulary, but you are now looking for more quality, flow, and a crystal-clear connection.

In this track, we let go of complex patterns to focus on the essence: technique that makes your dancing more fluid and responsive. We dig deeper into timing and dynamics to transform your technical foundation into pure musical freedom. The goal is to gain more precision and confidence in every social dance, regardless of the partner or the tempo.

19h: JAZZ & SASS

OC Lange Munte – Beeklaan 81, Kortrijk
Free contribution

Free trial classes – Cabaret – Live band

A social dance with a unique mix of Lindy Hop & Burlesque!

Sunday 31 January

11h – 18h30: 6u Lindy Hop Masterclass (Ambassadors)

OC Lange Munte – Beeklaan 81, Kortrijk

For those who set the standard on the dance floor. This level is intended for the community leaders of the scene: competitive dancers, experienced teachers, and die-hard social dancers who operate at a matching technical level. You are a reference point for others and are personally seeking the outer limits of musicality and connection.

In this group, we challenge you to refine your skills, focusing on the deeper layers of the dance.
