Galway Swing Drop-In Classes

Galway Swing Drop-In dance classes are held every Monday and Tuesday night. They are broken into distinct levels: Beginners and Improvers. You don't need a partner for either. To become a really good dancer you must be able to dance with anyone.

Drop-in classes are held on a continuous basis every Monday and Tuesday night, meaning that you attend whenever it suits you. Students in these classes have the option of paying per class (€10) or buying a block of 6 classes at a discounted rate (€50).

Beginners drop-in classes are held every Monday in both The Western Hotel starting at 6.30pm and upstairs in Cuba starting at 8pm. On Tuesdays The Victoria Hotel plays host to Galway Swing Classes starting at 8pm. The classes are held as normal on Bank Holidays. These classes are open to everyone whether you've danced before or not.

Galway Swing Drop-In Beginners Class

At beginners we teach 3 basic steps:

Don't worry, we only teach one step at each class and we take it nice and slow. Each evening we rotate the steps, so if you learned Lindy Hop on a Monday and come back on the Tuesday we will be teaching Charleston or Six Beat. So you can learn something new each night!

Galway Swing Drop-In Improvers Class

At Improvers we teach how to link the basic moves together with the addition of new moves. To join the Improvers class you must be comfortable with the three basic steps first and have completed at least 8 Drop-in Classes or a Beginners Course.
