What is West Coast Swing?

West Coast Swing is a modern partner dance, with origins in Lindy Hop, and is constantly evolving. It can be danced socially or in competition, and to almost any 4/4 music style: blues, pop, soul, RnB, funk, jazz, contemporary, hip-hop – the list goes on!

HappensDance aims to create a fun community of dancers who enjoy the social element of West Coast Swing, while also challenging our students to improve as they learn. Our teachers love West Coast Swing and seeing students grow in both confidence and skill level over time.
