ABOUT KEEP SWINGING

For us, teaching is inseparable from community building. In addition to our weekly classes, we have a social dance event every week, where members of our community can catch up and meet with each other, listen to music, have some nice chat and many dances. Moreover, we regularly organize weekend programmes, larger dance events, and we also have an annual summer camp. One of our most fundamental principles is that we show respect and acceptance towards each member of our community, and we expect the very same from anyone who takes part in our classes or events (see Terms & Conditions).

ABOUT US

Dance, as a form of art, can be looked at from many different perspectives, and its various elements can appear in different proportions at the different schools and communities. At Keep Swinging, we put a strong focus on giving the opportunity to each of our dancers to express themselves both in partner and solo dances. The foundation of this lies in paying attention to each other and developing a connection with the other person and the music on the dance floor.
