Join us for a Swing--and other figures--with partners in sets.

This is modernized American roots dance using easy walking steps to exciting, jazzy, LIVE New-England music.

Dance with one partner (for each set) and other couples, then change. A 'Caller' teaches by 'walk-through' and prompts you during the dance, making it accessible to ALL.
