Registration for the courses
You can sign up for our courses online, directly on our website in the Registration section.
If you register as a couple, it is still necessary that each person registers individually.
After submitting the application form, you will receive a confirmation e-mail with all necessary information.
Auditions for intermediate courses: Our goal is that you enjoy the course as much as possible! That’s why for some courses we do auditions, to be sure that everyone who signed up is ready for it. Whenever there is a course which will have auditions, there will be a note in the schedule next to it. Auditions may vary according to the course.
-
Payment for the course
The payment method is by bank transfer to the account of the B-Swing Civic Association. All payment information will be sent to you via email after successful registration.
The payment must be credited to our account no later than the opening day of the course. Otherwise, unfortunately, the application is not valid. We do not refund money if you do not attend the course. If you cannot attend some class or the whole course, you can take that given class or course some other time. The whole course can be taken in the next wave. A specific class can be taken upon agreement with the teacher.

Your partner
There is no condition to have a partner for the couple dances. Swing dances are among the “social dances”, meaning that dance partners will be changed during the class, so that everybody can and is able to dance with anybody.
If you want to register with a dance partner and you don’t have one, try our FB group for finding a dance partner: Be Swing Partner

Typical lesson
A typical dancing lesson begins with a warmup or some free dancing.
We often change dancing partners. On our lessons we don’t teach just dance steps, but as well how to lead and follow, and it helps a lot to try this with other dancers.
At the end of the lesson the teachers summarize the whole lesson in a recap, which can be recorded by the students, so they may practice at home, work or in the bus 🙂 These video recordings are exclusively for students of our dance school, so please do not share them anywhere.
