    The weekend was absolutely wonderful with such a great social atmosphere, challenges that really encouraged growth and led to the most fun uplifting teamwork after class which had the cool side effect of the styling class actually sticking with you for once. At the parties, divisions felt basically non present, everyone was getting on so well with eachother and getting to dance with you and everyone else was absolutely wonderful.
    I am absolutely exhausted but so happy how the weekend turned out, can't wait for next year :D

  • As weeks go…. This has been one of the BEST 9 day week ever - we’ll all meet again …

    My expectations were high from the 2017 edition, but John Armstrong-Holmesand Glenn Ball, you surpassed them all. So many good feels. Thank you so much.

    European Swing Challenge 2018 is an event like no others.
    Last weekend, I just had a blast. I remembered that I had a great time the year before, so that’s why I’ve made quite a last minute decision to go there.

    The entire event is a big competition with 5 rounds of challenges. So one would think this creates a competitive environment. Surprisingly not at all, it actually creates a social atmosphere during the whole day. People practicing solo routines together, helping and supporting each other. Such a great idea! Fantastic learning experience.
    The event has a nice social feeling and not because of late night dancing, but because of dancing on the workshops and comps. I love the WCS community that makes this possible.
