About

The U of S Swing Dance Club provides group lessons and dances for students in a welcoming, accessible, and low-pressure environment! No partner or previous dance experience is necessary as we start right from the beginning. All classes are on campus in the PAC (Room 101 studio). Memberships provide access to weekly dance lessons and social dances, but drop-in pricing is also available. Join us to learn the fundamentals and history of Lindy Hop, a joyful and playful social dance, and to explore other swing dances like Charleston, Collegiate Shag, Blues, and Balboa!

Membership Requirements

Members must be a valid USask student or over 18 years of age to register.  The club limits enrolment to 70 participants of which only 25% of memberships will be sold to non-students. No partners required.

Note - Only clean, non-marking shoes will be allowed in the dance studio. The less grip on your dance shoes the better!
