Rock That Swing Dance Camp 2010

The Idea

A wide range of audience – no matter if beginner, social dancer, teacher, or competition dancer – should have the chance to learn and deepen the most popular vintage swing dances of the 20’s to the 50’s with the finest instructor cast in pleasant atmosphere.

The Implementation

Dance CampThe Rock That Swing Dance Camp happened for the first time in February 2006 and was instantly a complete success. For the first time Boogie Woogie, Balboa, and Lindy Hop have been represented at a camp equally.

As we are always anxious to meet the desires and needs of the participants, we have extended and improved the bargain since the first camp massive. More levels for balanced classes, additional dances and special classes Dance Campfor teachers and competition dancers will accommodate the desires and needs of the participants. As every year a top line-up of teachers will make sure to impart new ideas and techniques which will allow you to have more fun and sovereignty on the dance floor.

Nice dance studios, which won’t let come up a gymnastic hall feeling, will provide a cozy atmosphere and will make it easier for you to learn and find contact with like-minded people. Let’s get inspired!
