Swing Into the Season! Learn the Easiest, Most Useful Social Dance Around

No partner needed • All ages welcome • Dance to ANY live band

Ready to have some fun? Eastern Swing is the go-to dance for live music in Minnesota — classic rock, country, blues, oldies, pop… if there’s a band playing, you can dance to it. And in this class, you’ll learn a super-simple system that lets you dance to any tempo, any song, any night out. 

We start with three easy rhythms that build your confidence fast:

4-Count Push-Pull — smooth, simple, and perfect for slow, medium and fast tempos. 3-Count Hustle — upbeat, energetic, and great for mid-tempo music. Classic Eastern Swing — the fun, lively triple-step everyone loves.

You’ll have a rhythm that fits every tempo — slow grooves, mid-tempo favorites, and fast, high-energy songs — so you can dance to almost anything a live band plays. This class is fun, friendly, and designed for real-world dancing. No partner needed, no experience required, no pressure. Just music, movement, laughter, and the joy of learning a dance you can use anywhere. Wear comfy clothes, shoes with non-slip soles, and get ready to swing your way into the season!
