Due to health related cancellations there are 3 more beds available. Hurry up if you wanna be part of Hülly Hopw Swing Farm in 2 weeks!

Hülly Hop Swing Farm, 3rd to 5th November 2017 is getting closer and we are overwhelmed by the amount of registrations, delighted about every returnee and excited about every newbie!

There are still spots available (especially for leaders), so be quick! The earlier you hop on board the more likely we’ll be able to fulfill your wishes regarding room mates and choice of level.

We will always be zealous to meet your requests, but the longer you wait, the more complicated or impossible it could become to satisfy all your wishes. So if you’re planning to register, do so as soon as you can 🙂

During the last weeks we have been busy booking teachers, DJ’s, and the band, advertising the event, printing new flyers and working on the website.

Since we will open registrations on 1st of July 2017 we are as well preparing the registration form.

Look out: We changed our track system this year, we will not only have 2 different levels, but also 2 different teaching speeds. Have a look at http://swing.farm/levels/ and see if you like it! We hope to make your learning experience even better than last year.

Swing on!

As a big extra we will have a nice Swedish live band on our Saturday party!

We proudly present: The Capulets!

During the last weeks we have been working on improving our concepts (e.g. level organization) and preparing the bookings for teachers, DJ’s, and the Photographer.

We will shortly announce the teachers, and we are sure that you will like our awesome line-up as well as we do.

Stay tuned, and mark your calendars: on July 1, 2017 we will open registration for the autumn edition, our “Spanish edition”!

Hülly Hop Swing farm is over. We will have a good rest and get back to you in a couple of days.

Thanks for trusting us, coming to our farm in the middle of nowhere, and dancing like crazy with us.

We truly loved it!

We are as well very thankful for all the feedback you gave to us via email, messages, personally, and in response to our feedback questionnaire. We put together some of it on our site here.

Swingingly yours – Agnes, Eve, and Henning.

PS: next edition is planned for 3.-5.11.2017. Mark your calendars!

We are happy to give you updates on different topics! Less than one month to go, we are soooo excited!

Update on Accommodation:

All beds in our 3-5 bed rooms are taken by today. You can still register for this option, but beds will be only available if we get cancellations. So please consider booking a hotel room or B&B close by in case we don’t get any cancellations.

Update on Levels:

At the moment the intermediate level is overbooked, and advanced is full. We are currently thinking about re-organizing levels and/ or rooms.

In case we can manage to organize we might use an extra big room with wooden floor about 2 km away from our location – we will provide a bus transport if we are going to use this room. This option would allow a bigger group with about 16-18 couples.

If we can not add this infrastructure, we might re-organize our levels, following your “upgrade/downgrade” preferences. We want to provide you a good learning experience and try to not squeeze to many couples in our rooms.

We will let you know as soon as we figured out our options!

We are happy to announce that on Saturday we will have 2 (instead of one) time slots for taster classes. In addition to the taster classes given by our international teachers (Saturday 16-17 h) we are happy and proud to to have some national teacher couples giving a taster (in english language, Saturday 17.15 – 18.15 h).
