HISTORY OF WHY NOT AARHUS LINDY EXHANGE

In 2017, Aarhus Lindy Hoppers realized, that their lovely lindy hop community soon had been around for 10 years. To celebrate the 10th anniversary of Aarhus Lindy Hoppers, a handfull of dedicated members said: Why not fulfill a big Aarhus dream and finally organize our own Lindy Exchange? That is how Why Not Aarhus Lindy Exchange was born: to mark the 10th year of Aarhus Lindy Hoppers’ existence in 2018.
