Mon: 6P - SEP Ballroom - EC Swing!

Service Description

East Coast Swing, a vibrant partner dance that emerged in the mid-20th century, combines energetic footwork, playful spins, and infectious rhythm to create a truly enjoyable and dynamic experience. Rooted in the swing dance family, East Coast Swing is often associated with the big band music of the 1940s and 1950s, making it a joyful nod to a bygone era of swing and jazz. Originating on the East Coast of the United States, this dance style draws inspiration from various sources, including the Charleston, Lindy Hop, and Jitterbug. Its versatile nature allows for both lively and relaxed movements, making it accessible for dancers of all skill levels. East Coast Swing embodies a sense of connection and collaboration between partners, as they navigate through a series of playful spins, turns, and syncopated steps. With its roots deeply embedded in the swing era, East Coast Swing reflects the exuberance and spirit of the time. Today, it continues to be a popular and beloved dance form, captivating dancers and audiences alike with its combination of athleticism, musicality, and joyful expression.
