Wow – what a weekend it was.  It didn’t go off quite how we hoped thanks to the fact that none of our interstate guests could make it, but I think everyone who attended will agree that it went very well in the end!  A big thanks goes out to our teaching team who stepped up at the last minute to put together some workshops, and of course a HUGE thanks goes out to everyone who came along!  Without you, we can’t run festivals like this.

I’m already looking forward to WSF 2022!

Did you know that when you take a TasSwing lesson for the very first time we’ll give you a free pass for your second class when you sign up to the newsletter?  You can sign up in class, and then enjoy a second swing lesson on us!

Need some swing tunes to practice to? Then why not try out our Spotify Playlist?

Earlier this year three of our fabulous dancers, Michael, Ariadna an Liv led the iCharleston Hobart project and produced a fantastic video. We thought we should link it here so you can see it whenever you want!
