We are the only student-led swing dance society in Edinburgh, but just one of the swing dance societies in the vibrant Edinburgh dance scene. We are very proud to say our dancers form such a big part of what is such a friendly and welcoming community! If you’re not sure what swing dance is, it is a dance style that evolved in Harlem between the 1920s and 1940s, specifically amongst the African Ame

UPDATED CLASS SCHEDULE

For our third semester (starting tomorrow 20th April) we will be introducing two new dance styles on Mondays; Hollywood Lindy and Laminu!

Hollywood Lindy is a 'dialect' of Lindy Hop that was (and is) common in California. The stance and timing are different, and it's a very fun style to learn for anyone familiar with Lindy Hop.

Laminu is a dance from 1940s California that evolved to fit slow music and crowded ballrooms. It is a close-hold dance, so dancers will need to be comfortable with that, but it can make navigating tight spaces on the dance floor easier as well as give you a chill option for when the music slows.

Saturday classes will be workshops each week with more information to come, and Sundays will still be Solo Jazz but will not run every week due to limited availability of teachers. Keep an eye out for more info on that.

See y'all tomorrow ;)
