### BLUES DANCE
Blues dance has a long and widespread African American history that is hard, to sum up in a few sentences….

But within our swing dance community, it’s a way to have fun and just improvise to the music. You are allowed to dance it without ever taking a blues dance class or you can dig deep into its rich history.
### SLOW DRAG
Closely related to Blues dancing but often danced to Ragtime jazz. It’s all about feeling the music and move subtle but sweet and drag your feet.

### CATS’ CORNER
Cats’ Corner is a non-profit dance organisation from Malmö. Our main focus is Lindy Hop, but we gladly also dance Charleston, Balboa, Shag, Blues, Authentic Jazz and other Swing dances.
