Come by any week to check out our beginner Swing Dance class, and have fun learning the basics of partnered East Coast Swing, Lindy Hop, Charleston, the Shim Sham, and more.
You’ll learn classic swing steps and movement technique as you refine your partner-dance connection with others; you can choose to lead, follow, or both. Take home video recaps of simple choreographies to practice, along with a curated Spotify playlist of classic swing and blues songs.
No need to bring a partner, although you’re welcome to. Those who arrive solo will rotate frequently with others; those arriving as a couple can choose to practice outside of the rotation, or may join the rotation and dance with others.
Join our growing swing dance community! After a few beginner classes, you’ll be ready to jump into the Intermediate Swing class, which meets right after the beginner class –– stay after the beginner class, to try it out for free!

Drop in any Monday to groove to classic Mambo tunes as you develop a solid dance foundation. Learn fun Latin dance steps, get exercise, and expand your movement ability. Take home video recaps of simple choreographies to practice, along with a Spotify playlist of classic mambo tracks.
As our focus is on body movement, we dance solo without partners. While this is best described as an intermediate-level class, absolute beginners often join too, and are encouraged to do so! Anytime a new person joins, we pause to review the fundamentals from the ground up, to the benefit of all. No dancer is left behind!
All abilities, bodies, and genders are welcome. Join our thriving dance community, and have fun learning with welcoming people –– the energy in the room is life-giving.
