About HappensDance
HappensDance is a West Coast Swing dance school based at the Burnside Ballroom in Tusmore, in Adelaide's leafy eastern suburbs. It teaches a partner dance that is as much about connection, musicality and movement as it is about footwork, drawing a remarkably broad community that ranges in age from people in their twenties through to their eighties.
The school is built around a warm, casual atmosphere with no pressure, where a large team of skilled teachers run weekly classes with enthusiasm and an obvious love of the dance. Beginners are looked after through structured six-week blocks before progressing through continuers and more advanced levels, with social dancing afterwards so students can put new skills into practice in a relaxed, supportive setting.
With a beautiful new venue featuring a stunning timber floor, generous seating and ample parking, plus private lessons and monthly practice meet-ups, HappensDance suits anyone in the Tusmore area looking to get active, learn a sociable skill and join a genuinely welcoming community. It is an especially good fit for couples and solo dancers wanting a fun, low-impact way to move.
