Looking for american swing dancing studios / gatherings in Jakarta

Post new topic

I'm looking for dancing studios or group gatherings for people who do American swing dancing (lindy hop) in Jakarta. I did swing dancing semi-professionally when I was in states and miss it soo much! Your infos would be greatly appreciated. :)

Hi,
Are you still around and interested in swing? Pretty sure there is nothing going on in Indo yet, but I'm looking to get something started in Jakarta.  Please get in touch.  Jacob

Agnes92

Yeah, DO IT! Tell me when it's set up...! I'd totally join..!

jphelps

Maybe we start real small, with a meet up at one of the jazz places in Kemang.  Any interest?  Know anyone else who might be?

Agnes92

I'll ask my friends when I see them...! I tend to think I'm the only one I know who'd be that interested...!
Would be awesome for there to be like a dance demonstration at the beginning, for those who don't know the basic steps yet... ;)

Swing Addict

We probably will not have our first gathering for a few weeks but if you come back we will hopefully have something more consistent. I love Korean dancers! Best in the world! Actually. Hope your stay is excellent.

Hiya - I'll be in Jakarta mid August for a week & would love to know where I could meet other Lindy hop dancers to dance with. I also do balboa, some jive & collegiate shag. Will be staying in Kemang area so any suggestions on great jazz nights would be most appreciated too! Thanks!

PS: Had the pleasure to dance with some South Korean lindy hoppers in Sweden & they are amazing!

Xcellent :). Once u r at the kemang village entrance, go to the pelita harapan school lobby, its in the same complex. Meet everybody there at 6! We go together to the class cos its not accessible for publics.

Looking forargentinian,salsa and  american swing dancing  studios / gatherings/ nite in Jakarta

verovero

Hi all,

I tried the facebook link and it didnt work. Is this still going on? I used to dance a bit of salsa and tango. no experinced in swing. Where and when is the class?

facobasten1984

I did tango and if you are a leader lets go to a milonga cos going solo doesnt work in jakarta ( totally different tango scende here) pm me for details

verovero

Hi,

I am not a lead and I was wondering abt the milonga here. Do we have to come with a dance partner already?

facobasten1984

Sorta like that. Quite a tragic scene ah

Swing Addict

Hey look up "indoswing" on Facebook the group should come up. I will soon have a website but for now just look up the Facebook group.
There is an event this Friday at Spanky's Ribs and Martini bar starting at 7:45pm beginner lesson and the social dance will go until 11pm.
Come out with or without a partner, everyone will dance with everyone!
Come have a great time!

AndiHop

Hi verovero,I lead in tango,  is there any tango event this saturday nite (22th Nov)
We can go together if you want.
Andihop

AndiHop

Oooh it s a pity, because I will arrive at jkt only on Friday midnight, is there another swing nite this weekend?

Swing Addict

There is no swing night this coming week but if you are really into Lindy, I can organize a group who might want to dance or practise if you really want. I can find us a place to dance. During the week days that is. Even on the Saturday if you want. I am not doing anything and I am obsessed with Lindy hop. Cant get enough. Let me know.

AndiHop

to swingaddict,
if you have a number of people who want to learn to dance and you also have the place, why not  I can make you beginners or intermediate class Lindyhop or balboa ??
