We are dedicated to making sure our community feels safe and accepted, no matter their age, gender identity, sexual orientation, ability, appearance, race, religion, nationality, or socioeconomic status. No forms of harassment will be tolerated, which can include offensive verbal comments, deliberate intimidation, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption of workshops or other events, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual attention, whether in person or online. Anyone engaging in this type of behavior will be warned and/or ejected from our events without a refund at the organizer’s discretion.
Please reach out to to us directly if you have a safety concern. Queer Swing Seattle staff have undergone training on best practices for handling safety and conduct concerns. We will always take you at your word, respect your privacy and take your concern seriously.
We stand firmly against discrimination of any kind, including based on sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, race, ability, appearance, national origin, or religion. We recognize that LGBTQAI+ spaces have often fallen short in supporting Trans, Nonbinary, Black, and POC communities, and we are committed to creating a space where everyone feels explicitly welcome, respected, and valued.
Lindy Hop is a Black American cultural legacy dance form. We honor this by centering education and programming that respects and uplifts its origins, with a commitment to cultural awareness and action.
Financial difficulty should never be a barrier to dance. If you’re excited to join us but need support, reach out. We partner with organizations to ensure cost doesn’t limit anyone’s access to our classes or community.
