If you have an interest, you are in. :) <br><br>We love spreading the gospel of swing dancing and we are excited to share the language and culture of this truly American, urban folk dance form with you. It is important for us to let you know that this dance style started in the African-American ballrooms of Harlem, New York in the late 1920s/early 1930s. This dance has a gritty earthiness that is incredibly empowering, beautiful, and joyful. We can't wait for you to experience this conversation of dance with us. <br><br>Attire is anything from casual to dressy. The best shoes to wear are comfortable and will allow you to pivot and turn easily. <br><br>We make learning to partner dance easy and enjoyable. Please join us the second Friday of every month at the Lakewood Masonic Temple and the last Saturday of every month at the Slovenian Workmen's Home. <br><br>Please see <a target="_blank" href="https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.GetHepSwing.com%2F&h=AT0kbqMUZvu9u1df4XfbQoR6xftMn4-ixsrArluUcLZHV6Zg8vTeYZfdJaodtid79cHE_SMr44n9HjnFC3LfVVQh3P-pOVSdYqX3FHw9h_E60_ELttfbGCpBvabGvyvh2KYMKocRWtb523hqPqVoQw&s=1" style="color: rgb(54, 88, 153); cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none; font-family: inherit;">www.GetHepSwing.com</a> for the most up to date information on dances, bands playing at the dances, classes, private lessons, school programs, performances and special topic workshops. <br><br>For more info, please email Valerie Salstrom; the owner of Get Hep Swing, at <a href="mailto:info@gethepswing.com">info@gethepswing.com</a></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br></span></div></div></div><div><br></div><div><br></div></body></html>
