Welcome to our swing dance community!
Lindy Hop from the film “A Day at the Races”, 1937
Learn Lindy Hop and Charleston, the original dances of the Swing Era! Swing dancing was created by Black Americans in Harlem, New York, and is joyful, free spirited, and infectious. It's unabashedly fun with a carefree style that closely reflects the hot jazz music of the late 20s, Big Band music of the 1940s, and everything in between. You're going to love it! Check out more information on the history of these dances here.
Lindy Hop and Charleston are partnered social dances, but you don’t need to bring your own partner. During our social dances, it’s common to dance each song with someone new. In class, we rotate partners so that you have a chance to meet and dance with many different people.
We kindly ask that you refrain from wearing fragrances and scented products when attending classes and dances at Boulder Swing. Perfumes, cologne, and scented lotions can trigger severe respiratory reactions in some people. Thank you!
