Rick and I are still in the area trying to get things going in Idaho Falls. There are lots of live jazz bands playing out this summer.
By request, we are holding a basic swing class during the month of August. Class will be held Thursdays 7-8 pm at the IF School of Ballet building (where our dance used to be held). We will be covering 6 count basic swing and well as some charleston and of course the technique needed to make the dance happen. The class is taught as a four week series and the cost is $32/person. ($8/class) Our first class is coming up on Thursday, August 5th. Email us at: swingjunction1@gmail.com if you are interested.
Upcoming: There will be swing dance workshops in the fall down in Pocatello and up in Rexburg - more info to follow. Also, during the fall we will be teaching another series in the swing dance called Balboa.
Welcome to Swing Junction! Swing Junction focuses on the dances from the 1920s-40s including Lindy Hop, Jitterbug, Balboa, Charleston and Shag. Swing Junction is working with local jazz musicians to keep this part of our history alive in Idaho Falls. Feel free to contact us if you would like any information about swing dancing in Idaho Falls.
