Paradise Swing Canarias is a non-profit association that brings together lovers of swing music and its dances. Since 2015, we’ve been working to grow the swing scene in the Canary Islands by connecting dancers, schools, and musicians.
Swing is a social dance style born in the 1920s in Harlem, New York, with African American roots and a strong connection to jazz.
It is characterized by improvisation, inclusive spirit, and open connection between partners.
It includes styles like: Lindy Hop, Charleston, Balboa, Blues, Collegiate Shag, St. Louis Shag, East Coast Swing...
