COVID Response
(scroll down for NYC Local Resources)

Welcome to & Welcome Back to Brooklyn Swings,

First off... WE STILL MISS YOU!

So times are a shiftin' and we are re-opening January 2022. We are ready to support connecting your body with your mind creatively and for learning! Plus... PEOPLING. We figure that seeing the same, less than 20 vaxed people, once a week is possibly safer than other options we have... SO WE ARE BACK!

Offering:
- Private Lessons
- Weekly Group Classes
       Partnered & Solo classes
​       Wash/Sanitize hands right before class
       Fully Vaccinated Only (You will be required to show your Fully Vaxed Card)
       PLEASE NOTE: For the first time EVER you are welcome to be in limited rotation OR you can come with a partner and only dance with that person.
​   
Consider donating to our 'Keep the Light on while I'm Gone' (below) as we come back BETTER. 

Feel free to reach out in anyway with ideas, suggestions, recommendations as we believe a conversation is better than silence.

Take care over there.

Always,
Jenny Sowden
​Founder & Director of Brooklyn Swings
