Welcome to Yale Swing & Blues, the non-competitive swing and blues dancing community of Yale and New Haven! We are dedicated to making social dancing available to every sector of our community, by providing space for people to gather and dance in a fun, informal, welcoming setting, and by offering affordable opportunities for members of our community to learn. Our regular events include:

We also organize trips to local and regional dancing events, and bring out-of-town dancers and musicians in for ours. Our events are open to undergraduate and graduate students, faculty and staff, and members of the broader New Haven community. No special shoes or partner required!

We hope to see you on the floor.
