First EKU Swing Dance!

September 12, 2007

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who was involved with the 1st EKU swing dance. A special thanks goes out to the Dance Theater for cosponsoring the dance with us.

 

The event was a blast. I have only seen this many people at one of UK’s big dance events. You all truly made this a special night.

 

For all of you just hearing about the club, please check the main site when you have time for updates about events in the region. We look forward to getting our club started and seeing you all at lessons.


Swingin’ in the Bluegrass

March 27, 2007

Ask yourself this question… What are you dong near the end of April? Now forget about whatever you were thinking about and replace it with this

One of the most super awesome dance events ever!

The UK HepKats are sponsoring a workshop from April 27th – April 29th called, you guessed it, Swingin’ in the Bluegrass.

This event features TWO workshops (Lindy and Balboa) and 3 Public Dances (which are free if you sign up for the workshop).

This is really an event that everyone should try to attend. It will be a great chance to work on your swing with two VERY good teachers.

Music Change

March 1, 2007

I’m sorry to have to let you all know that the Berea Jazz band in not going to be able to play at the March 2nd dance this weekend.

But the Berea club is going to DJ the event so you can still expect some great music. Maybe we’ll all be able to do the Shim Sham!!
