Second Cup Swing - savour the dance

graphic line

 

This Swing is the most versatile and useful partner dance you can learn!



We have a new month and a full slate of Saturday night dances both at Taft on 2/20 and the Demitasse Dances each n' every other Saturday.

Our next Monday evening Essential Swing Dance Classes will begin on March 1st. Please note that we are now having a Guided Swing Práctica (as our “Essentially Swing Class . part II”) on Monday nights as well. It's from 8:30-9:45pm and for the rest of this session they'll be free so come by and dance for a bit.
Prácticas work a lot better with more people than less, so please join us! Last time we had a few lonely leads :(

Lastly, don't forget that LindyFest is nearly here! It's on the weekend of March 11th-14th so register asap at http://hsds.org and get the lowest prices!!

Also

The Octanes
are at The Continental Club (map) on Monday nights for some high-octane Rockabilly swing!
Glover Gill plays some great Tango from 8:00 till 10:00 then The Octanes play until late.


You'll also want to check out The Big Easy (map) on Thursday Nights for Luther and The Healers. There are often dancers there for some great dancing and no more smoke! :)

Frankie Manning ~ Rest In Peace ~ April 27, 2009

Frankie Manning

Of course the day had to come but I guess i never allowed myself to believe that Frankie wouldn't outlive us all.
Frankie epitomized the energy and spirit of the dance. He was the greatest yet I never saw him act too good to talk, laugh or dance with anyone.
Houston is lucky to have gotten a chance to know him and Swing is very fortunate to have had, and still have, a mentor that loved the dancers as much as the dance.
