Swing Dance classes
SwingStateLondon
Dance with everyone and anyone in Wimbledon and Raynes Park!
Hello, dancers!
We are a dance school who run Lindy Hop classes for Beginners and Intermediates at the Lantern Arts Centre in Raynes Park, London, UK. Classes are on Wednesday evenings. Your teachers are Dawn and Moh (read more about us on 'The Team' page. Scroll down to see the dates of our classes, and RSVP so we know who is coming, especially if you are new.
SwingState classes are small and bespoke to our students. We specialise in teaching our students how to social dance properly with anybody on the global lindy hop scene. Our students enjoy performing for their friends and family at least once a year. We love making friends, travelling to dance events together and want everyone to rejoice in their own bodies through dance.
Come and join our community!
Note: Our classes will resume on the 8th of Jan because we are busy rehearsing for our performance at the Lantern Christmas Celebrations. Come and see us on the 30th Nov at the Lantern Arts Centre in Raynes Park, London.
