Welcome to the Louisville Swing Dance Society
Welcome, guys and dolls to the Official Web Site of the Louisville Swing Dance Society! We hope that you will find the information presented here useful as you discover and pursue the Louisville swing dance scene. Our many events listed on this site are tailored to both rank beginners and old pros, so be sure to check them out, have a blast, and pick up a new step or two.
Our Background
The Louisville Swing Dance Society was created by Louisville dancers in 2000 to learn traditional swing dance styles through research and knowledge sharing. Our goal is to promote swing dancing around Louisville and create a social atmosphere where Louisvillians can meet new people and have fun.
Membership
We have always been fairly informal regarding membership. There are no dues to pay, since most of our instructors volunteer their time and knowledge in order to support a swing dance scene in Louisville. We only ask that you join our Yahoo! Groups mailing list and create a Yahoo! profile for yourself so we can find out more about you and keep you up to date with our weekly newsletter. You can access our Yahoo! Groups mailing list and group pages at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/LouisvilleSwingDance.
In addition to the Yahoo! Groups mailing list and weekly newsletter, let this site be your guide to swing dancing in Louisville. We are always adding new dances, workshops, and other events to our calendar to keep you up to date with the latest happenings. If technology is your thing, we have a number of RSS enabled feeds of our site content which can give you updates to our calendar and announcements as soon as they are posted.
Last, but not least, if we have missed an event that you think we should be advertising, don't hesitate to tell us about it. If there's something you think we can do better to serve the swing dance scene in Louisville, we want to know. In short, we're here to ensure that the swing dance scene in Louisville continues to grow, and that both newcomers and pros alike can find the information they need, whenever they need it.
