New life has been brought to WindyHop! A new batch of volunteers and contributors are maintaining the site and it has been given a total revamp, front end & back end. So welcome, enjoy, and let this post serve as your introduction to the brand spanking new WindyHop.
What can you expect to find on the new site?
A new "Learn To Dance" page helping those who are new to the dance scene.
A new sortable calendar, now with a special listing for B.Y.O.P. dances. (Bring Your Own Partner) Not an organized dance
A venues page providing you info on dancing hot spots in Chicago
A brand new forum. I know what you are thinking, "crap, a new forum, now I need to make a new profile." Don't worry, this new and improved forum allows you to simply log in with your facebook or google account!
A new bands page. Chicago has some amazing jazz bands to dance to and the new WindyHop is showing them some love.
A new "Get Inspired" page. Check out some sweet videos of the pros, past and present, and learn a little bit more about Lindy Hop and Blues.
And last by not least, drum roll please... WindyHop now has a sweet mobile version for your smartphone!
