Free Monday Nordic Dance Classes at University Heights Center near UW

About this event

The beginner class will continue to meet on Mondays, November 2, 9, 16, 23, and 30, from 7 - 9 PM at the University Heights Center near UW. It will run through December 14 and then start up again on January 4, 2027. This class is FREE, thanks to support from the Jane Isakson Lea Foundation.

We will have a party on November 9, with live music — Mira Dickey, Patrick Gunning, and Elise Snoey — and with less teaching and more dancing. Come join us for a fun time and meet our wonderful students!

The focus is on beginners; advanced dancers are welcome as well. Singles and couples are welcome. We change partners frequently, and anybody can do either role. We cover basic turning skills and variants of Waltz, Pivot, Schottis, Hambo, Rørospols, and other lovely couple turning dances, as well as fun mixers. You are welcome to ask to work on specific dances.

Bring clean shoes to change into, with smooth soles and low flat heels for easy turning. If you don't have dance shoes, we have dance socks to help you turn easily. Show up any time; no need to pre-register.

5031 University Way NE, Seattle. Room 104 (middle floor, south side). There is parking by the building. Text the number below (a day ahead if possible) if you need the code to get in.
