About Us
Two Swing schools in Prague have joined forces in organising an original Shag dance festival in our capital of the Czech (Shag) Republic.
Our vision is to bring a pleasant laidback experience to all dancers in a smaller event where they can easily meet new people, and share their love of dancing.
This year however, we bring you even more! 4 levels of Collegiate Shag, including one special level for advanced dancers and 3 levels of St. Louis Shag! You can of course pick both dances, the schedule will allow you that craziness, if you are up for it.
So book the date 27—29 September 2019 and fly to Prague in the Shag Republic!

Teachers
This year bring you ace teachers from Poland, USA, Spain and Czech Republic. For Collegiate Shag classes you will be pumped up by Cherry & Filip, Sandy & Martí and Vlad & Nastya! For St.Louis Shag classes you have to wait a little longer for the surprise but for sure you will have the one and only Jenny! Wait for her company! More to be read about these wonderful people in the section Teachers.
Levels
As the Shag scene grows, we feel there are more and more people getting really good, really fast. So this year we’ve gone ambitious and created 4 levels of Collegiate Shag, one of which is an Advanced level which you can join only through taking an audition. Thrilling, right? And as we love St. Louis Shag also we’ve upgraded its levels too, isn't that sweet? You can sign up for Beginners, Intermediate or even Intermediate-Advanced if you have been in love with this dance for some time now! Please check the specific level description in the LEVEL section before you register.
Venues
They will stay pretty similar to the ones of last year, that means they are nice! We try to book locations in a same city area so you would not have to travel too much in between them and to live close by to all of them. They are all except for one located in Prague 1 (Václavské náměstí) and Prague 2 (Moráň). The Sunday party will be at Prague 8 (Karlín near Florenc), a really cool place to hang out, you will see! We will even play a match of volley or hang around a bonfire burning some sausages if the weather is kind :).
