Kevin St. Laurent & Emily "Jo" Hoffberg Lindy Hop Weekend June 5-6-7 in Toronto!!!

Kevin & Jo are world renowned Lindy Hop teachers, dancers, performers and champions who are invited to teach around the world. They have two of the most impressive championship records in Lindy Hop, and are outstanding teachers. Links to their websites at the Home Page. Further details at the Kevin & Emily pages.

Saturday Night Swing at Dovercourt features some of the best and most swinging live swing bands anywhere, plus great DJ'd music on the band's breaks, plus excellent beginner dance lessons.  Everyone is welcome including beginners. There is no need to bring your own dance partner because partners rotate in the lessons, and at the dances most people change partners for each song. There is no need to book in advance, simply show up at the door and you will be welcome. Most of those who come are in their 20s, 30s and 40s, some older, some under 20.

Lindy Hop is the most popular swing dance in the world today and also the most popular swing dance of the Swing Era.

*Full-time student price/discount: $3 off the regular price for Saturday nights.  Must show a valid current student card.
