Want to learn a fun, versatile dance? WEST COAST SWING is the answer!

West Coast Swing is a partner dance style that can be danced to a huge variety of music: pop, R&B, blues, hip hop, funk, k-pop and much more!

The 4-week Beginner Bootcamp is a crash course that caters to those who are complete beginners (no prior experience required), as well as dancers wanting to brush up on their basics and improve their technique! By the end of this course, you can expect to:

social dance comfortably to a variety of music!
express yourself through styling and musicality!
practice and improve through exercises from the class content!
meet new people and join a friendly community!

Have completed the Beginner Bootcamp previously, feeling confident about your basics, and ready for a challenge? The Level 2* Mini Workshops are for you!

Have you mastered Level 2 and are looking for your next challenge? The Level 3** Mini Workshops will focus on a different concept or skill that will take your dancing to the next level.

Dance Lab focuses on different elements of dance, and the topic will vary from week-to-week. Check our socials to find out what the topics are for each block!

You do not need to bring a partner in order to participate as the class will be rotational. Anyone can choose to learn as a lead or follow. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes. Always a good idea to bring a drink bottle and deodorant if you need it.

Bookings essential, tickets are limited. Secure your spot now!
