Dear Swing City Patrons,
Great night with Rico Barr last Saturday! We hope you
were able to make it. Look for them again early in 2015.
New Workshops!
Announcing a new series of workshops at Huron Ave with
Paolo and Katie Piselli, starting Sept. 13
These workshops will be held at Huron Ave on most Swing
City Saturdays this Fall and hopefully continue from
there. They are from 6-8pm and cost $20, and be sure
to stick around for the music and dancing at Swing City
with Paolo and Katie in the house from 9pm on. The first
workshop is on Sept. 13, entitled "Demystifying
Connection with Katie and Paolo", with "Tom
Nutile Big Band" performing at Swing City later
that evening.
Swing City will be offering a discount to workshop
attendees. Stay tuned for details.
Be sure to RSVP on facebook if you are interested in

"Eight
to the Bar" this Saturday
It's a big night coming up this Saturday to kick of
Labor Day Weekend with non other than ever popular "Eight
to the Bar"! Should be a particularly great night,
especially with a lot of the college folks now back
from the summer. Please join us!
And as usual, Mike's "famous" free, fresh,
hot popcorn and cotton candy. Check it out.
Dance
lessons at Swing City
New to Swing Dancing or already an expert? No worries,
we've got something for everyone!
Join us for a beginner swing lesson, or if you're
a more experienced dancer, we offer a concurrent intermediate
class. Classes begin at 8pm promptly, so be sure to
arruve a few minutes early.
Classes have been HUGE lately, so be sure to come for
those. Beginner and intermediate levels are concurrent
so most of our regular dancers will be able to take
a non-beginner class with our rotation of some
of Boston's top dance instructors, yet still bring your
friends who might be more comfortable at a the intro
level. Moreover, the classes are a GREAT way to meet
people if you're new to the scene, single, or just feeling
social!
The intro class will be single step East Coast, while
the intermediate class generally assumes you can dance
a triple step and are comfortable with a variety of
basic moves. The intermediate class is different each
week, generally Charleston. We sometimes features guest
instructors.
If either lesson is too hard or simple for you, one
can just switch to the other one as needed.
