The lesson will feature Michael Jackson’s Thriller line dance as taught by the undead duo, Jason Provost and Diana Byrne. The lesson begins promptly at 8pm – 9pm and then performed later on in the evening. So, start studying YouTube now… Don’t miss this party as it will be one of the best of the Fall!

Kickin’ it Old Skool
Last week, we went back to the 90s for Neo Swing, this week, Boston Swing Central will go way back, back to the days of Fats Waller, Bunk & Lu, and Cab Calloway. So we won’t be kickin’ it old school with Young MC, Tupac or Flavor Flav, we’ll be kickin’ it really Old School…30s and 40s style. In recent weeks, you might have noticed our distinctive shift this direction, and we hope to continue to mine our mp3 collections to bring you the best music we can find to keep your imaginations stimulated and your feet moving…this week we also welcome guest DJ Isaac Marx back.
And as always, we’ll have our beginning lesson at 8pm before social dancing. So come on out and dance with us!

Stompin’ at the Savoy
This week the BSC steps back in time, to the 1930s and the Savoy Ballroom. Dress-vintage…our DJs will bring their best Savoy Ballroom-inspired music to keep your feet jumpin’ to the Lindy Hop. This was THE era. Known as the “Home of the “Happy Feet”. The Savoy Ballroom was the epicenter for swing dancing. It’s where Frankie Manning got started and where he later joined the amazing performance troupe, Whitey’s Lindy Hoppers. It was also famous for a supreme battle of the bands facing off Bennie Goodman, Count Basie and Chick Webb. And the general concesus was that Chick Webb’s band won handily. We’ll try our best to recreate that feeling.
Kellian and Brian will be teaching our lesson this evening.
