Take this opportunity to dive into the world of Swing dancing! Whether you're a beginner or already familiar with the style, this dance workshop is open to all levels.
A "Discovery Pass" is specially designed for those who have never danced before: explore Lindy Hop and Solo Jazz, and let us make you feel at ease!
Lindy Hop and Solo Jazz are African American dances created and developed by the Black community of Harlem, USA, in the late 1920s. They celebrate freedom and personal expression.
Meet our instructors, explore our different packages, and check out the variety of workshops offered throughout the weekend!
