Hey dancers! Ready for an amazing month of dancing? We have beginner-friendly and more advanced lessons every week, and live music the second Thursday of the month. All events are held at the Philadelphia Ethical Society (1906 Rittenhouse Square).
So whether you're or you're here for your hundredth Lindy Hop lesson & dance, we've got the perfect Thursday night in Philly for you. Swing dance is a great way to meet new people, get some exercise, strengthen your brain, and just let out any of the week's stressors.
