Lesson Information and Locations
The basic steps in swing dance are very easy to learn. And once you've got the basics, you'll be dying to know more! The easiest way to learn to dance or to pick up some new moves is to come to club meetings. The tentative schedule is below. But, that's not all!The BEST way to learn to Swing is to take part in a beginning lesson series. There are lessons available this semester (see information below). There will also be a number of free swing dances sponsored by the IU Swing Club as well. Getting a formal introduction to Swing Dance -- and getting your basics down cold -- will provide an excellent foundation for the smooth moves you'll want to show off in the future!
IU Swing Club Lesson Series
There are 10 lessons in our beginner weekly lesson series. To get a preview of the club and our activities, just come to the IU Swing Club's call out meeting. If you can't make the call out, just show up on the first day of class. (No partner required!) Best of all, your membership in the IU swing club INCLUDES the lesson series! In addition to the beginner lesson series there are one or more intermediate lesson series offered each semester. The dance taught and schedule varies each semester.
The Fall 2009 Lesson Series will be taught by Greg and Christine Davenport.
