Founded
in 2007 by a group of devoted swing dancers, SwingColumbus Dancers is a
high-energy, lindy hop dance competition and performing group. The
dancers perform routines and improvised choreography based on the music
and dance styles of the swing era (1920s-1940's). The dance
styles they explore are Blues, Balboa, Breakaway, Charleston,
Collegiate Shag, Shim Sham, and Lindy Hop. In September, they won
the coveted Velvet Cup in Detroit and most recently won 1st place in
the Dayton Smackdown competition of swing dance teams. They are
passionate about their dances and music and are happy to share their
knowledge through performances, lessons, and demos.
