We are UT-Swing, the University of Toronto’s beginner-friendly swing dance club! We run beginner lessons, workshops and live music socials. We also host periodic larger events to provide new dancing experiences for our members and build community within the club and with dancers across Toronto and other universities. We offer discounted rates for students, but we’re open to community members as well – bring friends! Absolutely anyone who’s interested in swing dancing is more than welcome, even and especially if you’ve never danced before. We want to make swing dancing physically and financially accessible, so please get in contact if you have any concerns!

Weeky Lindy Hop Classes and Socials

Workshops

We invite guest instructors approximately every two weeks for specialized classes including intermediate Lindy Hop and introductions to other swing styles like Balboa, Charleston, Collegiate Shag, Blues and more! Follow us on Instagram or join our Discord to learn about our upcoming events. Workshops are discounted for students and free with a purchased dance pass – contact us by email or DM for more information, or ask an executive at our next event!

Live Music Socials

Every month, we invite a local 3- or 4- piece jazz band to play for a two-hour social! Every live music social starts with an hour-long beginner swing dance class. Most of our live music socials include an optional theme and prizes to be drawn, so don’t miss it! Follow any of our social media accounts to learn the theme and band each month. Live music socials are discounted for students and free with a purchased dance pass – contact us by email or DM for more information, or ask an executive at our next event!
