About Us
Swing Tyne is a volunteer-run, non-profit organisation dedicated to the promotion and development of Swing Dancing in and around the North East
Swing Tyne was founded nearly 15 years ago to improve and promote swing dancing in Newcastle-upon-Tyne and the surrounding areas. We meet this aim by:
· Creating regular learning opportunities for swing dancing in the local area
· Providing regular social dancing events
· Promoting swing dance related events to our members and the public
The society is a non-profit making organisation. All profit and surpluses are used for the benefit of the club or swing dancing in Newcastle-upon-Tyne as decided by the committee.
We maintain active teaching and social dancing across 4 different swing dances, Lindyhop, Balboa, Collegiate Shag and Charleston and encourage switching, dancing outside of primary roles and removing gender biases for each role.
We hold monthly social dancing nights at a bar in town and try to regularly dance to live music and support local musicians
wherever possible.
