Description

This course is aimed at dancers who are looking for a fluid dance on modern music with a slower tempo. We will mostly dance smooth jive and modern blues and you will see a clear heritage from west coast swing and tango in the moves we will learn. You will find a description and videos of the dances here.

Discover a smooth and expressive dance and join a friendly and welcoming community.

We offer a simple way to learn a dance from the west coast swing family. If you enjoy modern music with a medium to slow tempo and are seeking the confidence to attend social dance events in just a handful of weeks, this course is for you.

You will find more info about our dance here:

Best course for learning to dance with your partner by working together. Makes a lot of fun! Good for beginners and advanced dancers as you have a lot of flexibility :)

Der Tanzstil ist zu Pop-Musik, das heisst man kann es oft tanzen :) Eric und Carmen sind sehr sympathisch!

Amazing class: Eric and Carmen were able to make starting dancing very easy and intuitive. After already a couple of lessons you feel like you’re starting to own the dance, which I found very nice as a follower. The extra bonus of being allowed to stay for the regular class and choreo also made it possible to learn at an even faster pace and experience the passion the teachers have for this dance. Highly recommended!

This course was very calm and comfortable. The teachers created a comfortable learning environment and were able to adapt their instructions such that almost all participants knew how they could personally improve.
