Wichita Kansas - Premier East Coast Swing Dance Club


History of the WSDS

The WSDS was formed over the summer of 2000, when a local dancer decided that with all the interest in the area, Wichita needed an organized Society to bring everyone, and everything swing, together. The first WSDS Swingin' Sundays Dance was held on Sunday July 15th, and we've been growing ever since! We do everything from Lessons, to exhibitions, to hosting live bands and dances in various places throughout the town. 

What is the Lindy Hop?

The Lindy Hop is the original Swing dance born in the late 1920's at the Savoy Ballroom in Harlem, New York. It can be wild and fast paced, or slow and sexy...just like the music it's danced to! It has since spawned many different styles, as well as many different dances.

Go to SavoyStyle.com for an excellent history of the dance, its inventors, and the era it was born in.
