We took another trip down memory lane to the Savoy Ballroom this week to uncover some classic moves from the good old days (which isn’t to say that we remember the 1930s, but we’ve got connections…)
If you’re gonna kick it, ya gotta make it fancy, ya dig? (At least when it comes to Charleston and you want to impress your partner.)
Congratulations to our latest graduates of Lindy 1, we are proud of you as you take off into your new Lindy hop life. And speaking of taking off, our Lindy 2s did some fun jumpin’ themselves!
Yeehaw! Saddle yer horses and get yerself down to Swing It’s Easter Barn Dance, a hillbilly hoe down not to be missed.
What’s an Easter Barn Dance? Basically, it involves a whole lotta music, a clear barn (i.e. dance) floor, hot cross buns, home made lemonade, cowboy attire, and chickens… maybe. Plus, due to popular demand, we’ll be kicking off the Barn Dance by teaching the Shim Sham, the must-know vintage line dance. Giddy up! (more…)
After a Trischool Carnival in which Mt Lawley emerged triumphant (in my opinion), we’ve never been prouder of our Greenies! An eve peppered with swing outs ensued…
The first Trischool Carnival was such a success we’ve decided we’d like to run another one! And, hey, even try and make them a regular affair if possible.
The Swing It Trischool Carnival is a chance for everyone to meet their fellow students from all of our locations and enjoy a full evening of dancing and partying ON!
Date: Saturday, September 27, 2008
Time: 7:30pm - 11:00pm
Location: Royal Park Hall, 180 Charles St (cnr Vincent St), Mt Lawley
How Much?: $5 [Cheap!]
The night includes dancing to DJed music ’til you can’t dance no more, a free light supper and door prizes!
In order for everyone to be able to identify where they’re from each school needs to wear a colour:
Subiaco - Blue
Mt Lawley - Green
Manning - Red
It can just be a small piece of clothing or, if you’re extra committed, a whole outfit! See you there!
