Swing City, sponsored by Denny's Canned Music, originated 7
years ago and is located at the Edelweiss Club, 108 Niagara Street in James Bay, every Friday night.
The weekly Swing
City dance scene includes a swing workshop, presented by our dance
instructor Kevin Savage From his Company called Red Hot Swing from 8pm
till 9pm, followed by dancing to the tunes of Denny's Canned Music until
12:00 am. And on, occasion, local bands such as The Swingin' Bachelors
for a change of pace.
Swing City typically attracts dancers from a variety of
communities throughout the Victoria area. In fact, dance enthusiasts from the world of
ballroom, Latin and country dancing is often seen socializing with the
more traditional swing dancers at this most popular dance venue. It is
also common to see a mixture of young and old - between 19 and 79 years
of age - partnering up on the large hardwood dance floor and enjoying the
diversified music. Whether you like East coast swing or West coast swing,
Jive or Lindy Hop, its all there at Swing City for your enjoyment.
"Most of
our patrons appreciate the warm, friendly atmosphere at Swing City. Many single women, in fact, repeatedly tell me how
safe and secure they feel coming here. Swing City's atmosphere provides a comfortable setting where
everyone is focused on one thing and one thing only - dancing!" says
Denny of Denny's Canned Music and founder of Swing City. "There's only one challenge we have encountered
over the years and that is the lack of men. This is typical in any dance
community, I know, but it baffles me as to why that is. I would think
that if a man were looking for a way, and a place to meet women, he'd
naturally be drawn to the dance community. Most women love to dance,
especially with men who know how. And Swing City is certainly the place to learn. Even though Swing City is not considered to be a singles club of any kind,
I've seen a number of successful relationships develop through this
avenue. Dancing is a social activity, after all. It's fun and it's also a
great form of exercise. "
