SwingKidz is a youth-oriented West Coast Swing group providing discounted dance opportunities to students ages 3-18 (some assistantship opportunities extend to age 24).
This SwingKidz program is based in the Williamsburg/Yorktown, Virginia, area. ​
​
The young dancers volunteer, fundraise, and perform throughout the community - giving back to the community that supports them, as well as raising travel funds to perform around the country.
The SwingKidz is a youth dance group made up of dancers (no experience necessary).
The organization provides opportunities for growth in dance, leadership, and community involvement. In the past, students fundraised throughout the year to fund an annual trip to a national swing dance convention where they perform an original routine.
Travel to this event is not required to participate in classes, and will not be a part of the curriculum for the 2022-2023 Season.
​
Students are required to participate and perform in a full formal performance at the end of the season, as well as several informal performances.
Please submit this form for each child you would like to enroll in the SwingKidz program.
