City: Herräng, Sweden
Dances: Lindy, Balboa, Solo Jazz, Shag, Boogie Woogie
Herräng is since many years the world's most comprehensive and exciting swing dance festival focusing on vernacular American dances from the Golden Age of Jazz. The event, which started back in 1982, is somehow centered around the illustrious Harlem born Lindy Hop, but is also willing to present other dance styles popular during the same era, as well as pre-swing and post-swing dances and music. Historically, we have been willing to flirt with fad dances as far back as the late 1800s, but we have also been willing to hold hand with styles of the 1950s. We somehow believe that all these satellite dances have something to say and add to complete the picture of traditional American swing dancing of the first half of the 20th century.

The competitions, the show, the discussions, the music and dance nights are as many occasions to fill up with inspiration !!! CELEBRATE - EMPOWER - UNDERSTAND - EXPRESS !! We intend: To offer great opportunities for dancers expressing and celebrating the follower role To develop leader skill level in creating exceptional moves and movement based on the connected partnership inherent to our dance To provide a medium for the expression, empowerment, and development and celebration of women's place in the swing community We intend to create spaces for developing one's individuality for all who wish to invest the follower's role. The goal is to define and express Jazz dancer identities, knowledge of the solo and couple formats for social dancing and/or performance in a fun and empowering environment emphasizing inclusiveness.

If you add to your recipe some lindy hoppers, a pinch of tap dancers, a slurp of break dancers, a cup of great musician, and a handful of cool DJs you obtain a great delicious party called Brothers in Jazz. We like to share the same dancefloor and mutually inspire us, because we learn from each other and inspire each other, so our own dance gets enriched. These dance styles are branches of the same tree, different expressions of the same culture. We want to inspire each other but not fuse with each other, this is not a fusion event. You will have classes of the different styles and during the parties we will put a mix of music to share among the communities and dance as much as we can. We aim to improve our dance by improving our dancing in general. Inspire us not only by what we have in front but also from what we have next to us. To receive the ads as we launch you can like on our Facebook page and follow us on instagram. Meanwhile, if you are thinking about signing up, we tell you that you must haver a profile on our website, for this you can register here. Soon we will tell you much more, but for the moment save the date!
