About this Event

Join us at Sabreen Studio in Sheikh Jarrah and try a mix of different swing dances in our upcoming free swing introduction class on Sunday 17th at 7pm. What is Swing dancing? Swing was a popular dance from the 1920s to 1950s, and it saw a huge revival over the last 2 decades all over the world, because the dance is great fun and swing music gives you lots of positive energy and makes you meet people from all over the world. Swing includes a range of vintage dances, such as Lindy Hop, Charleston, Balboa and more. We are looking forward to welcome Swing Dance Palestine as our guests. The group was established in May 2014 by a small group of dedicated Palestinian dancers and a Swing dancer from Germany as their teacher. Over the years the group has grown and now also has groups in Bethlehem and Ramallah offering classes for regular dancers as well as beginners. They warned us: Swing dancing easily becomes an addiction and they love to steadily increase the group of addicts of this insanely fun dance! The event will be organized according to the current Covid safety guidelines. Please bring your proof of identity along with proof of covid vaccination status or negative test result not older than 48hrs. Limited places. Please RSVP to [email protected].
