I started this meetup because I love Ballroom and Swing Dancing to the music of a Big Band on a Big Dance Floor!I have expanded the mission to include all forms of dancing and dance lessons, there is at least one or more dances a week, most of the dances are in Portland. I want to help everyone to get dancing and having fun!

This meetup is dedicated to having fun dancing to the music of a 16-Piece Big Band, The Swing Street Glen Tadina Band with a vocalisit and a Big 5000 Square Foot Dance Floor with lots of room for your ballroom and swing dance moves. We will meet on the 2nd Fri of the month at the Clark County Dance Center in Vancouver,Wa with easy freeway access.

Admission is $10 per person, a dance lesson from 7 to 8pm is $5 extra, dance till 10:30pm. Singles and couples welcome, there is a reserved section for us so we can sit together.
