What is West Coast Swing?

West Coast Swing (or “WCS”) is a smooth, playful partner dance built around connection, improvisation, and musicality.

It’s danced to everything from pop, R&B, soul, and funk to blues and contemporary hits — making it one of the most versatile social dances in the world.

Unlike ballroom styles with strict choreography, WCS is all about conversation through movement. You’ll learn how to lead and follow freely, adapting to the rhythm and personality of each song and partner.

Whether you’re drawn to the groove, the creativity, or the community — WCS meets you where you are and grows with you.
