See why
swing dancing is so popular! Swingin’ music, talented teachers, cool
moves, a convenient location and a great way to meet people! Bring
friends or come alone. Dance your heart out or grab some snacks and
watch the fun from the sidelines. But beware, once you start watching,
it won't be long before you move out onto the dance floor! The
introductory lessons will give you plenty of skills to get your groove
on. Give it a try. You won't be disappointed. To get to the dance,
enter the front door off University Ave. Take your immediate left and
go downstairs. The Crossing student organization is partnering with
Madison Lindy Connection to make these dances possible. For more
