Any Swing Goes Competition!

What is the Any Swing Goes Competition? It's sort of like Jeopardy for swing dancing. You pick the category, you'll get a song to dance to...you dance. Other competitors will pick a category as well. The winner will have demonstrated that they can swing to just about anything...because Any Swing Goes! This contest is free to enter and has a really great prize, plus the ultimate bragging rights (we encourage you to be a gracious winner and share your joy with the world).

 

Lesson: 7:30pm-8:30pm
Social Dancing: 8:30pm - 11:00pm
Any Swing Goes Competition - 9:45pm (roughly)
