Class Descriptions
East Coast Swing (6-count swing)
The 8-week class starts from the ground up and covers 6 – count swing dancing. The first 2 weeks cover the basics. The remaining classes will always be different for each series and will teach you new dance moves to add to your skills. We use lots of repetition to help gain a solid knowledge of swing dancing and strong lead and follow skills are emphasized (not to mention we have a ton of fun). New students are admitted up until the 2nd week of class. No partner or knowledge of dance is required to attend. Sorry, no drop-ins allowed.
Instructors: Denise & Tom Bach
Denise has been teaching swing dancing since 2003 and has a style that is both fun and effective. She can break it down so simply that new dancers learn great lead and follow skills in a short time while having lots of laughs along the way. Tom joined the teaching team in 2012. Together with Tom and their love of people, dancing and having fun, there's not a better swing dance teaching team who truly care about their students and seeing them learn and conquer new material.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do I wear?
Dress comfortably with shoes that are not sticky and have backs (avoid flip flops). Wear clothes you can move easily in. Avoid wearing lots of rings or jewelry that might get in the way (or scratch your partner) while dancing. While some folks come straight from work, very casual clothes like jeans, shorts, gym shoes, T-shirts are perfectly fine. It's a dance class, not a fashion show and it's good exercise!
Do I need a partner?
Yes, however we can accommodate up to 2 individuals without partners who can dance with the instructors. Let us know if you need a partner and we'll keep an eye out for someone that can partner with you for this class.
What is the refund policy?
If you find that swing dancing isn't for you (Is that even possible??) a 50% refund will be given for 8-week classes if you contact Denise Bach by email no later than noon, the day after the 2nd class. No refunds are given after that time. For 2 week-classes where payment is made on the first day of class, there are no refunds. Classes that are 3 weeks to 7 weeks long, requests for refunds must be made by noon the day after the first class for a 50% refund.
