What we're about

Learn to swing dance, no partner or experience necessary. Meet new people who are interested in swing music, learning or practicing swing dance, and most importantly having fun. We offer lessons for every level of dancer each Tuesday in Columbia Heights, followed by 2 hours of social dancing.

$10 gets you a night of dancing and the introductory lessons ($7 student/military), there is no fee to join this group. Cash or card at the door.

The weekly introductory lesson is a great place to start swing dancing and meeting people. If you want to learn more, there are 6 week lesson series. Swing 1 is open to new dancers each time it starts, whether you've taken the introductory class or not. There is a new series beginning November 12 at 8 pm.

This group is affiliated with New Columbia Swing.
