swing dance lessons in tulsa

swingin' saturdays

Swing the night away every Saturday night at our weekly TOSS dance! Our swing dances are held in the gymnasium owned by Southminster Presbyterian Church on Brookside. From Peoria turn west at 35th place. The gym parking lot will be on your right.

We kick-off each evening with a beginning East Coast Swing lesson, followed by dancing for two and a half hours. For those who know the basics of East Coast Swing, we offer intermediate swing dance lessons at 6:30. Doors open at 6:15. If planning to take a lesson, please arrive a few minutes early.

things to know

Unless this is a special event, you can expect to dress comfortably. Some feel comfortable in jeans and tennis shoes while others prefer dressing more for a night out. Just be sure you are wearing comfortable shoes – sandals are not recommended and ladies might want to bring a pair of lower-heeled or flat-soled shoes.

Spiked heels and shoes that can leave marks are not allowed on the gym floor.
Please bring an alternate pair of shoes if you are uncertain, as Southminster requires that we not allow these types of shoes on the floor.

Our environment is a casual, fun place to continue to learn to swing dance. Instruction doesn't end with the lesson time. If you ever want to get a few more moves or work on technique, any of our instructors would be glad to help you. Feel free to ask!

TOSS strives to provide safe, family-friendly events. No alcohol or smoking is permitted. We sell bottled water and a water fountain is also available for use.

Food and beverages other than water are not allowed in the gym. Please leave them in the lobby.

People of all ages attend our dances and lessons.
