West Coast Swing, and mixed-style dance party!

Friday sessions are back!

A few years back we ran a regular Friday night, a couple of times a month and it was always a very popular night. A great way to end the week and you still have the weekend ahead to enjoy all that life offers. The venue is centrally located, close to eateries, has a great floor, stage and air con.

West Coast Swing (WCS) is an ultra-smooth social swing dance, originating in California, USA. It is characterised by it’s sense of fun, rhythmic footwork, freedom to improvise for both leaders and followers, and it’s beautiful smooth elastic look and spongey feel. It captures a great range of music, including, RnB, Blues, Soul, Soft Rock, and Pop. Check out the video link below.

This is West Coast Swing

Dance Party- (Modern Jive and West Coast Swing).

Dancers love a dedicated, private place for social dancing, where they know the music will be catered to them, and where their fellow dancers will be there on mass to connect and dance with. In fact, the social dancing aspect becomes the best part of the dance experience for many! Its also one of the best ways to improve.

We are recommencing Friday sessions and mixi-style dance party from February 10th.

Prior to the dance party we will be running a FREE level 1 West Coast Swing Class, followed by a West Coast Swing workshop. Details below.
