Why Live Music?
Because we all love it! We support live music. Besides teaching classes we want our student and any newcomers to be able to put their steps and fun to the test! We pay for the venue and we pay for the band and you get to take a class, so come out and have some fun! We treat each other like family and we encourage you to come to take the class so you get to meet all! Some of us bring a snack to share.
Our rich "American Original" Music and Dance Culture can be preserved and practiced all at the same time. It belongs to us. Share the joy and bring a smile to somebody else! We are all connected and it bring us all together. Experience the power of music and dancing! The road to a healthier, happier life while making great friends! It is a family affair!
Live life to the fullest
Come by yourself or bring your friends and family. Welcome to our inclusive and welcoming Swing Junction family!
