Services

No matter what kind of party or event you’re throwing, there’s always room for swing dancing. We’ve worked with birthday parties, bands, musicians, event planners, and choreographers on a number of gigs to perform and demonstrate swing dance.

If you want to theme your event, we can do 1920’s Charleston, 1930’s & 1940’s Lindy Hop & Swing, and 1950’s & 1960’s Jive dancing. Whatever the occasion, we have a solution.

To discuss rates and for a quote, please contact Birkley at 780-604-7572 or birkley@sugarswing.com. Rates will be similar to those described here, but will vary depending on the type and amount of services required.
