How should I dress for my swing dance class?
I have no idea how to dress for my beginner’s swing dance class today. I don’t have any swing dance-looking clothes (and it would be laughable now, as it is a beginner’s class). I don’t have the right shoes, either…would jeans and converse shoes be okay for today? What do you think? I’m a college student.
Many beginner and more advance swing dancers dress for comfort. Sneakers are worn with jeans or (as you did not mention if you a re nale or female) pants, skirt etc. . If you were going to a more formal venue or just wanted to start dressing up more you should build on you own style. Old pictures are a great but you can also check out site that deal with swing cloths. A hint that can help. If the floor is sticky many of my friends put duct tape on the sneaker soles to help slide a bit. Hope this helps……… Keep dancing. It will get in your blood. .

I would wear sweats instead of jeans since you will need to move easy. Sneakers should be ok for the first class. When you get to class ask if there is something better to wear for class. Don’t forget your water bottle. Have fun….
