Come one, come all, and prepare for the finest tea party in the land: Boston Tea Party! As one of the only west coast swing/Lindy hop crossover events in the world, it’s a pretty big deal, so we’re starting the hype early at our March dance 🎉 Not only do we have the honor of training with the esteemed Saya Suzaki & Roberto Corporan for two whole hours, but we’re also get the chance to practice competing in a just-for-fun All American Jack & Jill for some fabulous prizes. Your contest entry is included in the cost of class registration, or as an add-on to a social dance-only pass.We have residential neighbors at this venue who appreciate their sleep and their resident-only parking spots. Please monitor your volume outside of the venue and take care not to park in marked resident spots or on the left-hand side of the garage (the right side is safe after the hours posted on the signs).
