Swing Dancer Profiles are an opportunity for everyone in Vancouver's Swing dance & music community to let others know why you're so passionate about Swing and your views about Swing in Vancouver.
We encourage anyone to submit a profile - whether you're new to Swing dancing or a seasoned veteran, a social dancer, an instructor, performer, event organizer or promoter, musician or DJ...
For instructors, promoters, performers, etc, you might view this as an opportunity to raise people's awareness of you and for people in the Swing scene, potential students, clients and customers to learn more about you, your views and values...
For social dancers (people who aren't professional instructors, performers, etc) you might view this as an opportunity to share your love of Swing and let others know why you're so passionate about it - and your views on Vancouver's Swing scene.
Please note this is not a dating service. We won't be asking for, or distributing, your phone numbers, email addresses or any personal information. But it is most definitely a way for people to get to know you better!
