Come dressed in the colors of the country you are rooting for!

Need a break? We'll be streaming the Olympics on the TV!

Join us for a fun mini-J&amp;J competition. First 5 follows and 5 leads who sign up at the door will participate in a Winter Olympic themed, just-for-fun competition. You'll get 3 songs, each with a twist. Crowd enthusiasm will choose the winners (who will get a free pass to one of our events)!

From 8-9pm we will run two simultaneous lessons:

If you're new to West Coast Swing or want to refresh your basics, join Julia Boucher and Jim LaDouce in their beginner lesson. 

If you're looking to boost your West Coast Swing, join our guest instructor, Kristen Shaw in her intermediate lesson "Curve the Slot": 
In this snowboarding-inspired West Coast Swing class, we’ll work on smooth transitions, elastic redirects, and absorbing momentum like you’re floating down fresh powder. No jerky direction changes — just clean flow, controlled compression, and that satisfying “whoosh” feeling through every pass.

Then let's dance together with our fabulous DJ: Kristen Shaw who will be spinning tunes for us all night long!
