A weekly swing dance night at the Valiant Ballroom in Downtown Vancouver, Washington offers both beginner and intermediate lessons followed by social dancing.

The second highlights partnered Charleston with essential steps, variations, and ways to enter and exit the pattern. The third returns to fundamentals with 8-count Lindy Hop basics. The fourth introduces swing-outs with attention to footwork, timing, and body mechanics. When a fifth Wednesday occurs, the session explores the Shim Sham line dance with a focus on footwork, rhythm, and mechanics. The intermediate track alternates content across two monthly rotations. In the first rotation, dancers work on closed connection with pulse and rock steps, turn technique including preparation, rotation, and moving turns with speed and momentum, strategies for faster dancing, refinement and variations on swing-outs, and fancy footwork when there is a fifth week. In the second rotation, the emphasis shifts to open connection with push pull and lateral connection while exploring limits, using momentum and direction in both lateral and rotational movement, distinguishing between 6-count and 8-count, another round of swing-out refinements and variations, and fancy footwork on a fifth week. The amount of material covered adapts to the experience level of the group. Requests are welcome at the end of the lesson, and feedback on lesson content is invited.
