Your first step into Swing

Join our free trial class and become part of the biggest and youngest Swing Community in Salento

Why join?

The trial class is just the front door. Behind it there's a Community that dances, throws parties and hangs out even when there's no dancing involved. Here are 5 good reasons to hit the floor with us.

  • Never danced before? You're in the right place

    Almost everyone who shows up for the trial class starts from zero. You'll have the basic step down in the first ten minutes.

  • You don't need a partner

    During the class you swap partners constantly: that's how Lindy Hop was born. The people who come on their own usually end up meeting the most people.

  • You'll actually meet people

    This isn't the kind of class where you walk in, walk out and talk to nobody. Afterwards everyone sticks around, chats, and quite often heads out for a drink together. It's the least boring way to break up your week.

  • It doesn't end with the class

    Social dances, parties, workshops, the Salento Swing Festival. Plus dinners, movie nights, trips: after your first evening you'll discover there's something on every week, all year round.

  • It's free, and you can take your time

    Come along, give it a go, and nobody will ask you for anything. And if you do sign up and you're under 30, there's a dedicated discount on the course.

Where and when?

Pick the venue and the time slot that suit you best: there's more than one available. Get there ten minutes early and we'll have time to introduce you to someone

How to join?

Booking is dead easy: follow the steps and you'll be one of us in no time

Send us a private message

A message on Facebook or Instagram with your first and last name (everyone's, if you're coming with someone), a phone number, and the venue and time slot you've chosen.

Get your confirmation

We'll reply the same day to confirm your spot or, if that slot is already full, to offer you the first one available.

Come and have fun

All you need to bring is a smile and the desire to meet new people: let yourself get swept up by the energy of our Community.

Why us?

We're not a dance school that throws the occasional event: we're the beating heart of Swing in Salento. It's a difference you'll feel from your very first evening.

Swing pioneers

Since 2015, Swing in Salento has had a name, and it's ours. Twelve years of classes, socials and parties without missing a single season.

More than 300 people

The biggest and youngest Swing Community in Salento (average age 35): making new friends here is easy, whether you come as a couple or on your own.

Teachers who know their stuff

A team that keeps training, in Italy and abroad, and knows how to lead a room full of beginners without leaving anyone behind.

More than just Swing

Classes, social dances, workshops, parties, the Salento Swing Festival. Plus dinners, movie nights, trips together: Swing is the glue, but we see each other even when we're not dancing.

A warm and safe space

A welcoming, respectful environment where anyone coming for the first time always finds someone to greet them and introduce them around.

Still have doubts?

We've gathered the answers to the most frequent questions right here

Yes, we need to know who's coming: spots in each slot are limited and we don't want anyone left out. Pick one of the available slots, drop us a couple of lines on Facebook or Instagram, and we'll take care of the confirmation.
Yes, it costs nothing and there's no obligation to sign up afterwards.
Yes, and that's what most people do. Partners rotate throughout the class, so you'll dance with everyone.
Come comfortable. Jeans and sneakers are perfectly fine: the only thing that really helps is a smooth sole, which slides better on the parquet.
Yes, and the trial class exists exactly for people starting from zero. Almost everyone in the room will be there for the first time.
The course starts right after the trial class period. We'll walk you through days, times, prices and how to sign up in person at the end of the evening, with no rush (and you'll find it all in the Courses section of the site too). If you're under 30 there's a dedicated discount!
Of course, write to us on Facebook or Instagram and we'll find another chance. We usually keep the first class of the course open as well, for anyone who couldn't make it earlier.
Bookings only go through Facebook and Instagram: it's how we keep every request in one place and get back to you quickly. If you really don't use them, have a friend write for you and mention your name: that works just fine for us.
Just write to us, even if it's only to ask: Facebook or Instagram. We reply to everyone.

What happens after the first class

Courses, social dances, workshops, parties. The trial class is one evening: this is everything else!
