SHAG DANCING?

There will be a drop-in shag class (for beginners) followed by social dancing in Spegelsalen .
The Collegiate Shag (or ”Shag”) is a partner dance done primarily to uptempo swing and pre-swing jazz music (185-250+ beats per minute). It belongs to the swing family of American vernacular dances that arose in the 1920s and 30s. It is believed that the dance originated within the African American community[1] of the Carolinas in the 1920s,[2][3] later spreading across the United States during the 1930s. You can see how it looks like for example here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Klta1fMbtRQ

Free Monday Night Swing at Dansön in Lund

Måndagsswing med swingin’ picknick och socialdans på dansön i Nobelparken. Ta med filt, dansskor och något gott att äta.

Vi ses från 18 men kom gärna tidigare (eller droppa in senare).

Denna kväll är gratis och öppen för alla!

Håkan tar med en liten högtalare och en spellista men det är fritt fram för fler att hjälpa till och bestämma över musiken och ta över DJandet en stund.

Vill du dansa innan jag är på plats så är den stora vita boxen en bluetooth-högtalare. Det finns även en megafon som du kan lägga din mobil i som då förstärker ljudet oväntat bra…

Vi fortsätter tills alla tröttnat 🙂

Vad hände med dansen i Vita Huset på Djingis Khan?

Håkan var lite snabb med att gå ut med event innan lokalen var 100% bekräftad och den visade sig tyvärr vara upptagen. Vi är dock alla överens om att det är en bra idé at ha svingdans i denna lokal och hoppas återkomma med nya datum. Anmäl dig till nyhetsbrev för uppdateringar

Join us for a spontaneous swingin’ picnic and social dance at Dansön in Nobelparken

This evening is free and open to everyone!

Bring a blanket, your dancing shoes, and something tasty to eat. While the dance floor itself can’t be reserved, it’s usually free for use.

We’ll see you from 6 p.m., but please feel free to come earlier (or drop in later).

Håkan brings a small speaker and a playlist, but it’s free for others to help out and decide on the music and take over the DJing for a while.

If you want to dance before Håkan gets there, the big white box is a Bluetooth speaker. There’s also a megaphone that you can put your phone in, which amplifies the sound unexpectedly well…

What happened to the dance at Vita Huset (Djingis Khan)?

Håkan was a bit too quick to announce the event before the venue was 100% confirmed, and it unfortunately turned out to be booked. However, we all agree that holding a swing dance at this location is a great idea and hope to return with new dates soon.

LINDY HOP

Lindy Hop is an African American street swing jazz dance. It evolved from many other dances in the late 1920s and early 1930s in Harlem, New York.
