What if I don’t know how to swing dance?

We all started somewhere. Please come and learn. There is no experience necessary to join the lessons on Wednesdays at 7pm. Plus, admission to the lesson also gets you into the dance, so you will have plenty of time to practice what you learned and get inspiration from others.

Do I need to bring a partner?

There is no partner necessary. During our lessons we rotate frequently to give everyone a chance to practice the moves with different partners. We also encourage everyone at our dances to meet new people and dance with everyone else.

What should I wear?

We encourage people to dress in light/comfortable fabrics as dancing will often work up a sweat. We also encourage people to avoid open-toed shoes. Our events are very casual, so wear whatever makes you happy.

What kind of dancing is it?

At ELLA dances, you can dance to swing music from the 30s, 40s and today. Great for Lindy Hop, East Coast Swing, Charleston, Balboa, Shag and Blues.

Who can attend?

Anyone can attend an ELLA dance. All ages and levels are welcome.
