Did you know our instructors volunteer their time? We are very lucky to have these local and very talented people sharing their dance expertise with us! West Coast Swing Calgary is entirely run by volunteers and is a not-for-profit organization. It’s all for the love of the dance and supporting our Calgary West Coast Swing community. A shout-out to the people that make it happen, along with all our Westie dancers! Join us Friday at Ballroom and Country Dance Studio: 121 – 17 Avenue NE, Calgary.  $10/First timers always FREE!

Friday night WCS continues with lessons for all levels, munchies, and a dance party. We love to have newcomers so bring a friend or two and introduce them to this amazing dance. First timers free as always! See you there!

It’s Donut Day at West Coast Swing Calgary! In 1917, during WW1, 250 volunteers began serving donuts to soldiers in “Huts” near the front lines in France. By 1937, Donut Day became an annual morale-boosting and fundraising means of offering these sweet treats and raising money for much needed essentials for the troops.

Though the origin of the donut is unclear, it is known that the iconic look started making an appearance in the United States in the mid-1800’s. Rumor has it a gentleman by the name of Hanson Gregory invented them, out of a distaste for the undercooked centers. His solution was said to be punching a hole in the center with a tin pepper box.

Let’s find OUR center this Friday at WCS Calgary! (Timbits may be involved 😁)

You will not believe the generosity of one of our dancers!!! It brought tears to my eyes. You need to come out this Saturday to experience the bliss!
