FREE Outdoor Vintage Dance Class

Join Glasgow Swing Exchange in front of the beautiful Kelvingrove Art Gallery on Saturday 29th June for a FREE vintage dance class!

FREE Outdoor Vintage Dance Class

About FREE Outdoor Vintage Dance Class

The class will be taught by Glasgow-based swing dancer, Ruaridh Clark, co-founder of Glasgow Swing Dance and will focus on the roots of traditional jazz, a style that had its original heyday in the 1920s, 30s and 40s.

This class is suitable for everyone, of all levels, including complete beginners and there is no need to bring a partner as we'll be dancing solo.

We suggest you wear comfortable clothing and shoes that are easy to move in, and to bring a water bottle and sunscreen.

After the class, do stick around as there will be social dancing with swing dancers from Glasgow, the UK, and beyond!

This event is weather-dependent and will not go ahead in the event of rain so do keep an eye on the Facebook event page for updates.
