Swing Dancing FAQs
|
Thinking about finally coming to dance this week? Do it! Here's some info that should help...
Q: What do I wear?
A: Dress is Casual or Vintage. Most people dress casual. Sweat a lot? Bring extra shirts. Wear shoes that don't fall off. Smoother bottom is better but don't over-think it.
Q: Do I need a partner?
A: 90% of people who attend are single and come alone. We rotate partners in group class. It's fun! During social dancing everyone just asks each other to dance. Girls can even ask guys!
Q: Do I need to know how to dance?
A: Nope! If you want a clue take the lessons. Still, it's easy to start swing dancing. Just show up and start copying people! Swing dancing is a street dance. There's a lot of ways to win.

"210 Dance is a brand new restaurant/bar/club a couple blocks from downtown San Juan Capistrano. Its a nightclub with a dance studio in it. What a unique place especially designed for people who love to have a night out with dinner, a full bar, and lots of dancing. It's a small joint were you can get to know everyone and have your special place to hang out. We are glad to have a wet venue again since we lost TJ's a couple years ago. See you there!"
-Shesha and Nikki
