Wichita Swing Dance Weekly

Hello dancers! 

 

We are looking forward another great week of dancing.  If you are a September baby, we want to celebrate you this Sunday with a birthday dance.  Make sure you ask at the front table for your wrist band.  Mark your calendar for special dance opportunities: the Dollar Dance on September 29th, Soul Night on October 9th, and annual Halloween party on October 30th. 

 

Beat the rush and buy your pass for the October Series classes this Sunday.  Here is a sample of what you will learn in Lindy 102. You may have different instructors but they are working from a syllabus to ensure no duplication of material.
