Swing with Karen and Michael
Karen and Michael
Swing Dancing originated in the 1920's in Harlem's Savoy Ballroom. From there, it spread across the US and around the world. It is one of the most popular forms of social dance. In this class we teach you East Coast Swing and Lindy moves that can be danced anywhere you find swing music: clubs, swing/lindy dance parties, ballroom dance parties and wedding receptions.
