Swing Dance Instruction By Mike Quebec

A group dedicated to quality, yet affordable (and FUN!) retro swing dance instruction in the Fremont, Newark, and Union City Areas. Smooth Style Lindy Hop was the "jitterbug" swing dancing often seen in 1940's Big Band Era musicals and 1950's Rock n' Roll Era drive-in films. It is the "ancestor" so to speak of modern day West Coast Swing, yet danced to faster music. Balboa is a closed in type of s

wing dance style with flashy footwork, best used for retro 1940's and 1950's dance music with a fast drum fast-rhythm (and there's lots of those, especially from the Big Band genre!) It doesn't require a lot of space, so it's perfect for a crowded dance floor, especially for dancers who want to do spectacular moves, yet remain safe, on dance floor that's packed with people with limited space. If you love '40's Big Band, Jump Rhythm and Blues, or (especially) '50's Rock n' Roll (Rockabilly and Do Wop) and you're in the Tri-City Area...this is the page for you! Not only do we do affordable group dance instruction at The Fremont Adult School, we do bi-monthly FREE dances at the Joanne Brown Dance Studio in Union City, as well as supporting local retro dance venues, such as Swingin' At The Rack on Thursdays at The Saddle Rack in Fremont. It's all about the love for '40's and '50's retro youth culture through dance.
