What is West Coast Swing?
West Coast Swing is a fun, partnered style of social dance! Although it originated from Lindy Hop during the 1940’s in the USA, it can be danced to almost any genre of music and has evolved to become one of the most versatile, expressive and improvisational social dance styles around the world!
West Coast Swing has become a modern style of partner dancing that is ever-evolving and has no limits when it comes to progression, and you can have fun no matter what level you are – even if you have 2 left feet! This style is hard to define but so easy to love.
