ABOUT DOWN SOUTH SWING
Down South Swing is centered on creating communities of dancers, something we believe to be not only a benefit, but also a necessity for a healthy society.

Swing is a social dance, and we gear our public lessons to make dance easily accessible to regular people. While we teach the fundamentals as building blocks that can be used to develop into performance quality dancing, we keep in mind that everyone has different goals regarding dance, but the primary one is to have fun.

Down South Swing also encourages individuality and creativity in swing dance. We recognize that swing is not only a social, but also a living cultural artform that varies in style depending not only on the personality of the individual dancer, but also according to regional and musical influences. Our instruction and performance recognizes this. We teach and perform many specific styles, but stress the universal tools of dance, providing them for use in creating your own specialized art.

It is the mission of Down South Swing to promote, educate, invigorate and empower the communities we are fortunate enough to interact with and be a part of. We do this both through our own work and through collaborative efforts with other businesses and organizations.

Maybe it will only be once in a blue moon or maybe it'll be every day, but our hope is that, no matter who you are, we'll see you on the dance floor!
