Bring a partner or come solo—everyone is welcome! We do our best to keep dances balanced with leads and follows so you may see that one or the other is "sold out" until we get enough other registrations to keep a balance. If you are open to learning both positions, please register as such.

Grab your partner (or find one here at the event!) and get ready to dance the night away.

Country Swing is an exciting, upbeat partner dance that blends traditional swing with a country flair. The basics are easy to learn, the dance is fun to watch, and even more fun to dance! Whether you’re brand new to dancing or just looking to brush up your moves, this beginner-friendly class will have you moving, spinning, and smiling in no time.
are perfect for everyone.
