DCLI is a dance club. Its members are a varied group that comes from all walks of life and have one thing in common: a love of dance. Founded in 2010, DCLI joins a variety of groups and clubs on Long Island formed around dancing. DCLI seeks to bring together dancers who want to have some control over the cost of dancing. Lessons are expensive, particularly the important private lessons. Group lessons, just as important, can also be costly. DCLI seeks to form groups of people with similar desires and then engage professional instructors to teach in group format. We believe that bringing a ready made group to a venue, and then engaging instructors, is a better, more cost efficient way for members to learn and practice dancing. Be part of our community.

West Coast Swing Lessons & Dancing with Blake Hobby

at the Eastwind in Wading River, NY

Learn one of the greatest social dances on the floor! This style of Swing is a descendant of the Lindy Hop of the 1920s. Done at a slower tempo and to smoother music, it’s the perfect dance for almost any evening out!

The first Tuesday of each month is Newcomer Night for new dancers followed by a Mini-Intensive for more experienced dancers. The following Tuesdays will include reviews as well as new content.

7.00-7.45pm: class 1: west coast swing basics
7.45-8.00pm: beginner practice / advanced warm-up
8.00-9.00pm: class 2: intermediate patterns, technique and styling
9.00-11.00pm: open dancing to Blues, R&B, and Contemporary swing
