We tend to think of Charleston as early swing. It's the primary precursor to Lindy Hop. In fact, often the word vintage, in reference to swing, refers to Charleston. You won't find a Charleston only lesson for first timers, but you will learn Charleston at Sugar Swing. The same applies to us in Calgary. Cheers Dave Hi Joseph

I would like to learn to dance the charleston but have been entirely unsuccessful in my attempts to find instruction in Edmonton. Do you know if there will be any workshops or anything in Edmonton or Alberta by extrapolation in 2008? I really would love to learn! Please help me if you can, anyone!
