Howard & Gayl's (the owners) philosophy and goals for swing dancing in Tucson:
Our goal is to enriched the Tucson Lindy Hop community by offering lessons, social dancing, and provide a place for swing collaboration for Tucsonans (out-of-towners are always welcome to join in!). We believe that swing dancing is more than a set of moves or the perceived stereotypes displayed in media, it is a social experience that has brought people together from around the world. It allows the dancer to participate in a creative process (both lead and follow!) that many people find very freeing and invigorating.
Swing is not just a dance; it is a multifaceted global community that welcomes people of all ages and walks of life. As with all dancing, swing is good for the soul and just plain ol' fun! The "global" aspect of swing can be seen in this YouTube clip, a collaborative project for the great and late Frankie Manning, the ambassador of swing. Rest in peace Frankie.
