About us

West Coast Swing adult dance lessons and social dance parties in southeast Pennsylvania. With locations in Colmar and Hatfield we draw dancers from Bucks, Montgomery, Philadelphia, Delaware, Chester, Berks, and Lehigh counties.

We strive for an environment that is safe, welcoming, and fun for beginner and continuing dancers at our social dance events. No experience needed. There is a beginner lesson before each monthly First-Friday dance and weekly lessons on Tuesdays. We will teach you to West Coast Swing! Or if you already have experience, fantastic! Come dance with us. Leaders and followers wanted. No partner needed. We are a friendly bunch and mix during the lessons and dances.
