Are you the owner of TasSwing?
TasSwing is the premier swing dance club in Hobart, offering a welcoming and vibrant community for dancers of all skill levels. As the home of swing dancing in Hobart, TasSwing provides a range of classes, social events, and workshops for enthusiasts to learn, practise, and celebrate the joy of this timeless dance style.
Classes are held on Wednesday nights at the Polish Hall in New Town. The classes cater to both beginners and intermediate dancers, with a focus on lindy hop and other dances in the swing family. Beginner Swingers class is open to join any week of the year, as the foundation footwork is taught consistently before moving on to new variations. The intermediate classes, known as Building Blocks, are sometimes offered as a block of classes for a month.
Interested individuals can find out the weekly class schedule by checking the TasSwing Facebook page or signing up for their newsletter.
The Wednesday Night Hop is a monthly highlight, where the usual Wednesday night class is replaced with an evening of social dancing. The venue is transformed into a lively dance floor, complete with dimmed lights and a mirror ball, while the club showcases the best local DJs from 7:30 pm until 9 pm. Participants can drop in for $10, or opt for the class and social package for $20. On these nights, the 6:30 pm class runs as usual.
Participants are encouraged to bring their own drinks and snacks to enjoy during the event.
In addition to regular classes and socials, TasSwing organises fun social events throughout the year. These events often feature live music and unique themes, such as the Xmas Big Band Ice Cream Party and the Winter Swing Festival. Participants are encouraged to stay updated on these events by checking the TasSwing newsletter and Facebook page.
For those looking for personalised instruction, TasSwing offers private lessons taught by their experienced teachers. Interested individuals can reach out to the club via email to discuss the available options.
Whether you are a seasoned swing dancer or have never stepped foot on a dance floor, TasSwing provides a friendly and inclusive environment for everyone to enjoy the energetic and rhythmic world of swing dancing. Join TasSwing and become a part of the thriving swing dance community in Hobart!
