SWING & SWAY DANCING

MIDCOAST MAINE'S
SOCIAL AND COMPETITIVE  DANCE INSTRUCTION
Showcase
Showcase is a dance recital created by our teachers and their students-- dancers just like yourself.   Swing & Sway puts on two, world class Showcases each year--one in the spring and one in late fall.  It is an opportunity to create, learn, and perform a dance of your own creation.

It all starts with music: First, pick a song you love--perhaps something you have always wanted to dance to;   Or choose a specific dance that inspires you, such a as waltz or samba, and we will help you find you the right song.  Your teacher choreographs a personalized routine to that music.  Over the course of the next four to six months, you learn not just the choreography, but the technique and style of that dance, skills you can continue to use long after the performance is over.  You can incorporate basic steps  and also learn some show-stopping moves and lifts you might never have thought you were capable of. 

Next, find the perfect costume that makes you feel handsome, sexy, and beautiful.  Have your hair and makeup done by a professional.  And then, dance under the lights on a professional stage,  perform your piece in front of an audience filled with fellow dancers, friends, and family.  Our professional photographers and videographer will document  your performance and you can share your DVD of the show with all your loved ones.  After the show,  you can relax at the cast party, enjoy some tasty treats, and have some laughs with your fellow performers. 

Performing in a showcase provides you with an excellent goal, an opportunity to strengthen your technique and confidence, and have the chance to shine.
