Swung

Swung is available to dance at your next social event / halftime show / dance performance / etc. In addition to performing a number of choreographed pieces, we can also teach swing lessons or DJ a swing dance. Please contact us at swungathensga@gmail.com for information on booking the troupe.

Swung will hold workshops open to all intermediate dancers at least twice per year (typically August and February). *If an attendee expresses interest,* this workshop will serve as their audition to join the group. We’ll work on a combination of skills in these sessions including technique, learning new vocabulary (moves), and learning choreography.
What we’re looking for:

• Dance ability
• Learning ability
• Performance ability
• Working in a group setting (positive, helpful, polite, takes direction/critique well)
• Dedication to Swing dance in Athens
  Regular attendance at Swing Night and/or UGA Swing Club, participation in additional workshops, traveling to other scenes/events, and getting involved with Classic City Swing (Athens’ annual weekend event) are all great ways to show your commitment. A healthy dose of any or all of these items is a definite plus!
