Learn from our Dance Team members who are some of the most talented dancers on the swing scene today. Each of us specializes in the swing styles that emerged out of the 1920s – 1950s here in America. We cherish these dances and love sharing them so that they will live on and on. Maybe you'll be part of the next generation of talent.

★ Live on stage: MARILU’ (ITALY)
Marilù have been on the road for more than 10 years now, performing on the most important Italian stages and rock’n’roll festivals, such as the Summer Jamboree in Senigallia.
The sound of the band meets halfway between twist and doo-wop, rhythm ’n’ blues and surf, it’s a fresh rock’n’roll that started from blues but then switched towards the old-school country: “oldies but still goldies” hits with a personal new interpretation and style, sometimes bravely forced into a new and more modern dress.
★ FROM 9.30pm : FREE 50’S DANCE CLASS WITH DANCERS Paolo & Laurentina
