West Coast Swing group classes happen every Tuesday and Wednesday night. These are drop-in classes so you can join at any time. Singles and couples are welcome. We rotate partners frequently so that everyone can experience a variety of leads and follows. Regardless of gender identity, you can choose to lead, follow, or switch between roles. 

The Tuesday class is designed for dancers who are new to West Coast Swing and will cover basic 6-count (7 to 8 PM) and 8-count (8 to 9 PM) patterns with variations. Everyone is invited to stay after class for a 30 minute practice period.

The Wednesday night class consists of a 30-minute warmup (7 to 7:30 PM) that focuses on stretching, balance, and core strength and a 60-minute intermediate-level class (7:30 to 8:30 PM) that explores ways to extend and/or combine the basic patterns into more complex amalgamations. The warmup is complimentary for dancers attending the intermediate class. After class there will be a guided practice until 10 PM; the purpose is to provide unstructured time for learning how to communicate effectively as a dance partnership. We will be available to provide feedback and formal/informal instruction on specific skills of interest. If you are uncertain which class is right for you, please come to the Tuesday night class first.
