Service Description
Start your journey! Learn the 6-count and 8-count rhythms and core patterns of West Coast Swing in a fun, supportive setting. This series is designed to give you a complete night of dancing every Wednesday. Your Series Includes: 5:45 PM – Open Floor: Get early access to the floor for self-guided practice. 6:30 PM – Core Basics Class: Our structured 4-week curriculum to get you moving with confidence. 7:30 PM – Social Dance: The "main event" where you apply what you've learned in a real social setting. The Details: Registration: Your $80 registration covers all four weeks of the series, including the practice hour and social dance. Lead, Follow, and Inclusivity: West Coast Swing is a social dance where roles are not tied to gender—any human can lead, and any human can follow. When you register, you will be asked to choose a role. To help us maintain a balanced class, please stick to this role for the duration of the 4-week course. No Partner Needed: We rotate partners during class to build social connection and better technique. Age & Eligibility: Participants must be 18+. (For younger teens, please email us regarding our minor policy). Scaffolded Learning: Because this curriculum builds week-to-week, drop-ins cannot be accommodated. Please see our "No Roll-Forward" policy regarding absences. Discounts: Student and military discounts are available. Email mail@westslopewesties.com before registering for your code.

Cancellation Policy
West Slope Westies Booking & Refund Policy Online Booking Cutoff: Online registration closes 5 minutes prior to the start of class. If you miss this window, please see a volunteer at the check-in desk to be manually added to the roster (subject to space availability). Series Registration: Cancellations and refunds are available until 24 hours before the first class of the series begins. After this point, we cannot offer refunds, "roll-overs," or credits to future series. Missing a class in a series does not entitle the participant to a partial refund. Drop-In Classes: Non-refundable. If you cannot attend, you may reschedule your class online, or, please contact us 24 hours in advance to reschedule your drop-in credit to a different date within the same month. Attendance: For Series Classes, consistent attendance is key. If you know you will miss a "Basics" class, we highly recommend deferring to a future series to ensure you have the foundation needed for the group. Volunteer-Run: We are a small non-profit 501(c)3. Your registration fee directly supports our venue and community costs. Thank you for your support!
