Classes
Our classes are a great way to start swing dancing.
We offer various levels in a friendly, well-paced, and welcoming environment, perfect for beginners and those looking to improve their skills.
Courses are designed for all skill levels, with no prior dance experience or partner required.
Expect to learn fundamental steps, rhythms, and social dance techniques while connecting with a vibrant community.
By the end of the course, students will gain confidence in swing dancing and enjoy social events with fellow dancers. Comfortable shoes and a positive attitude are all you need.
When you sign up for a new class, you're automatically included in all previous classes you've taken. This approach helps you reinforce your fundamentals and revisit what you've already learned, ensuring a solid foundation as you progress.
