Ever find yourself tapping your toes to jazz tunes? You can learn to step out on the floor and dance to the jazz tunes.

Urbana Park District is offering Swing Dance classes this winter at Phillips Recreation Center. The classes run each Sunday from January 23 – February 27. The Intermediate Class begins at 5:30 p.m. The Beginner class begins at 7 p.m. There is an “open dance” after each session.

Learn swing dances like the “jitterbug,” “Charleston,” and “Lindy Hop.”

Beginner classes are appropriate for everyone including people with no dance experience. Intermediate classes are for people who have taken at least one beginner class and want to learn more intricate, creative patterns.

Register by January 18 and get a special discount - $20 for residents and $30 for non-residents.

Sign up online at urbanaparks.org/register or call Phillips Recreation Center at (217) 367-1544.

Everyone age 15 and up and with all abilities are welcome to sign up for the class. You don’t need a partner to come to the class.

We hope to see many people swing dancing this winter at Phillips Recreation Center!
