In a city of devoted Salseros and Tangueros, this expressive, addictive dance known as West Coast Swing continues to grow! Danced on a wide variety of music; including pop, soul, funk, hip hop, RnB and top 40, West Coast Swing offers both partners unlimited opportunity to interpret and express the music in their own unique way. Dance Conmigo offers levels 1, 2 & 3 every session and hosts an open West Coast Swing practice every Tuesday from 8:30pm-10pm for just $2. Be ahead of the curve, and join the league of Montreal Westies who are creating a dynamic West Coast Swing scene we can be proud of – both here and abroad! Won’t you join us?

Boston Tea Party 2011

Dance Conmigo students and teachers “represented” at this renown dance convention attracting West Coast Swing and Lindy dancers from all around the world. Watching live performances by West Coast Swing’s biggest names as well as participating in workshops, competitions and of course, general dancing, gave Montrealers a great new inspiration and drive to share what they learned with the community at home. Here instructor Cheryl Williams competes in the Boston Tea Party 2011 Strictly Prelims with fellow WCS-lover Nicolas.
