1929 Online

Ramona Staffeld, world champion swing dancer and director of 1929 Studios, wants to share Lindy Hop, Jazz, and Tap dance with people all over the world.

Even though we have taken jazz dance out of it's natural habitat by putting it online, we firmly believe in practice and nurturing the partnership with yourself. Hopefully we can support you by providing a special place to do just that. 

In 2020, 1929 Studios started producing online courses for students of all levels

  • Starting at $0 AUD/mo

What are people saying about Jazz at Home?

"Jazz at Home is more than just dance classes in my living room. It's more like having a party in my living room. I love it!"

Scott Everard

"Jazz at Home has been a wonderful way to keep dancing during some very uncertain times! 1929 Studios has crafted some brilliant online tutorials suitable for all levels (I have tried everything from beginners to advanced and would encourage everyone to do the same!). I really enjoy the pace of the classes, and being able to go back and watch and listen to the instructions is invaluable, especially when you want to work on specific steps in your own time. Each Jazz at Home routine is accompanied by some excellent history lessons and includes links to superb clips of dancers and musicians and stories about the origins of well-known steps. This is something I really love about these classes - there is such a strong acknowledgement of the founders and roots of jazz. This knowledge is shared so genuinely and generously, and will inspire you to work hard to keep your dancing alive!  

Live Zoom classes are also a great way to connect with the international Jazz at Home community, and to receive live instruction from Ramona is a delight! She is always there to answer your questions, take on your feedback and support your journey. 

Thank you, 1929 Studios!"

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a membership?

A membership is where you jump onto a monthly payment option that gives you access to lots of content. This is perfect for you if you plan on doing more than one course.
Our courses are usually around $50 each on their own, so it is definitely worth becoming a member to access the whole library.

How does it all work?

First off, wander on over to our Membership page. Here you will find:
  • the place to purchase your membership
  • a list of what you get for your membership
  • the member area where we post heaps of stand-alone videos each month
Then, you can start one of our CORE VIDEO SERIES. These are our longer courses that take you on a learning journey over many bite-sized instructional videos.
Becoming a member means that you have access to our content for as long as you are an active member. We will keep your membership until you want to stop.

I just want to learn one particular course. Can I do that?

Yeah! Just scroll up, browse our courses and purchase the course you would like. You can purchase it on its own. 

What can I do if I really want to learn, but just can't afford it right now?

1929 Studios tries to make swing dancing accessible to all dancers, regardless of existing circumstances or opportunities. Whilst we think the time and expertise of the contributors are worth the price tag we've listed, we will always listen to individuals who, for various reasons, can't manage this. Please contact us on either of the three contact methods listed below.

I have a question/feedback. How do I contact you?

  1. Message us here (look for the little chat button on the bottom right of your screen)
