Ever thought swing dancing looked really cool? Ever wondered how difficult it would be to learn? Ever wanted to dance to big band music and jazz from Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald and Ray Charles?
Here's your chance. Students from the Chicago Swing Dance Society, a student organization on the UofC campus, will introduce you to East Coast swing dance, the most basic form, give you the lowdown on where to dance in Chicago, and several demonstrations on different kinds of swing dance, like Charleston, the lindy hop and blues dancing. We'll also throw in a free CD full of swing music for you to dance to at home.
The Chicago Swing Dance Society teaches swing dancing year-round and holds free weekly dances open to the public. Check us out at swing.uchicago.edu!
