Swing Dancing in the hub
We’re Dirty Water West Coast Swing, a monthly west coast swing dance in Greater Boston. Run by locals, for locals (and friends passing through), we strive to provide a top-quality experience for our dance community. With a mix of international professionals and home-grown talent, we throw a party every month that is not to be missed.
Dances are held on the second Saturday of the month at the George Dilboy VFW Post in Somerville, MA unless otherwise noted.

Biomechanics nerds, perpetually injured dancers, and anyone who wants to be able to WCS well into their 90s unite: sports and orthopedic bodyworker and licensed massage therapist Megan Dupree is coming to Boston! We’ve all taken classes on how to dance, but when have you had a chance to learn how to really MOVE? Megan will take us on a three-hour deep-dive into the mechanics behind how to show up as the strongest, most efficient, and pain-free version of yourself on the dance floor.
For our new dance friends, please join Desirae & Matt for a special extended beginner WCS class- extra time means extra practice and extra fun!
We have residential neighbors at this venue who appreciate their sleep and their resident-only parking spots. Please monitor your volume outside of the venue and take care not to park in marked resident spots or on the left-hand side of the garage (the right side is safe after the hours posted on the signs).
