Swing It – The Last Night

Hey there, I hope everyone has had a nice lockdown! I’ve been enjoying zero exercise and maximum couch. Perhaps not the best choice but there it is! Due to the latest news on Covid restrictions and the potential risk of transmission the final night of Swing It classes have been moved again, this time to July 13th. If restrictions are lifted as suggested we’ll be running the final events as: Last Class night – 13th July Rhythm Lounge – 17th July Stay safe and we hope to see you soon! – Shane & Tara ———- Swing It’s last night is almost here....

There was overwhelming support for the return of our classes on Tuesday night. 87 people in the hall for our Shim Sham class gloriously socially distancing as we danced away our blues. Regular Lindy Hop classes return next Tuesday with Level 2 followed by Level 1 kicking off on June 23rd!

Learn From One Of The Old Greats

Learn From One Of The Old Greats

20 years ago I walked into my first ever Lindy Hop class and began my Swing journey. It’s a journey that took me from a non dancing country boy to an international Swing Dance teacher that has taught all around the world. The important thing is, of course, that it all started with my first teacher…Roger Schmidlin. Given it’s my 20th year AND Cheryl’s 20th year we thought it would be a wonderful idea to invite Roger to North Perth so he could teach a class for you all. Roger is easily one of the most dynamic and athletic dancers...

Spring SwingFest Was Amazing!

Spring SwingFest Was Amazing!

The biggest and most wonderful thank you to everyone who took part in the Spring SwingFest! It was an incredible event and I couldn’t be more thrilled with how it went. A big thank you to our visiting teachers Remy and Ramona for bringing so much energy and positivity (shout out to Ramona for constantly being on the dance floor!). Also a big thank you to everyone that helped in set up, pack down and general helping out over the weekend. These weekends would not be possible without you. Looking forward to the next big weekend!

Vic Park Gets A New Location

Vic Park Gets A New Location

What a great start to our new venue! SO many new Level 1s poured in and then we had a great, old school Level 2. Loved it! A very big thank you to Carly for baking cupcakes for the evening (yum!) and just a big ol’ thank you to all of you that have supported Swing It over the years. 14 years in a month and it all started in this very Vic Park venue. Love it and very happy to be back where it all began.
