What are the benefits of swing dancing?
Swing dancing is a great way to get fit, enjoy music, and meet people. Being a part of the swing community also gets you access to an close-knit international network of dancers and events. Big swing events are held throughout the year in all parts of the world (see some links). If you happen to visit a city with a dance scene, whether for an event or just on a regular trip, you can almost always find someone host you at their home. Being part of this community also helps you make friends in new places. Many of the club officers got to bootstrap their social network at Cornell by just going to a swing dance and getting to know other dancers. This also works wonders for summer internships!
