Sat 4/5 @ 8-11PM
It’s time again to get out your comfortable shoes, grab a friend or two, or the whole family, and head down to the Family Life Center in Chagrin Falls for the monthly Bainbridge Swing Dance. It’s got multiple benefits: the chance to pick up some dance steps and work off some energy dancing, to socialize and make new friends, and finally, to hear some great live local music with a danceable beat. The dances are all-ages events, welcoming to families, couples and singles, both experienced dancers and novices, so don’t worry if you come alone —it’s part of swing dancing to change partners all night long.
Doors open at 7:30; at 8pm there’s a dance class, so if you’ve never done this before, you can learn the steps — and friendly regulars are eager to help you out. Music starts at 9 and goes to 11pm.
This month, dancers will get to hear and dance to one of northeast Ohio’s veteran bands, Blue DeVille. They’ve been on the scene or 25 years, playing roots music that contains a big dose of swing, along with blues, country, R&B — anything with an infectious beat.
Admission is $15, $10 per child or $40 per family. No registration is required. Get more information here.
