That header's not a typo. For this week's Swing Dance Sunday DJ, we've got Ryan Reddy spinning his favorite tunes for your dance floor enjoyment! Ryan has been a swing dancer for 12 years in scenes across Texas, D.C., South Carolina, and now Jacksonville, Florida. From these multiple dance scenes, he has performed numerous swing styles and learned from many of the great dancers from around the world. Ryan is also one of the wonderful organizers of our very own First Coast Blues & Lindy Society (BLS).
If you don't already know this, First Coast BLS' mission is to preserve and advance the American art forms of Swing Dance & Blues Dance in Jacksonville, St. Augustine, & Northeastern Florida. First Coast BLS was founded in 2013 to serve Northeast Florida by promoting and providing swing dance & blues dance lessons, organizing events, and fostering relationships in the swing dance community. They operate as a non-profit organization and are open to people from all backgrounds.
They run a dance on the first Saturday of every month. So if you're looking for more places to swing dance, check out their events calendar!
