Ever been interested in learning how to Swing Dance? Come and join our group! No partner or experience necessary! Everyone is welcome, including undergraduate and graduate students, staff and faculty, and community members.
Our beginner lessons are always meant for actual beginners – if you’ve never danced before in your life, we’ll teach you the basics to be able to dance socially with others in the group! Our beginner lessons are also great ways to refresh your skills, learn new moves, and warm up for social dancing. These lessons are drop-in and don’t require a long-term commitment.
Our intermediate lessons are designed to be taken as a progressive 6+ week series starting at the beginning of the semester. By practicing these moves at our social dances, you should be able to dance with anyone anywhere in the world – not to mention locals in and around Philadelphia & New York! Because these lessons are designed to be sequential, you should try to attend as consistently as possible; however, our teachers are happy to help you catch up if you have to skip a week.
We also often have workshops that focus on building a particular skill. These are drop-in, non-consecutive lessons that often have a narrower focus than a regular lesson. Different workshops are suitable for different skill levels; if you’re unsure whether you’re of a suitable skill level to participate in a given workshop, please feel free to reach out and ask!
This organization is open to all Princeton University students interested in supporting our organization’s mission, regardless of identity, such as race, sex, ethnicity, national origin, or other protected characteristics
