The focus of the weekend is simple:
Great dancing comes from great partnership — any partnership.
This weekend is designed for all dancers, not just established partnerships. The level of someone’s dancing is only one part of the equation. What really creates great dancing is connection, communication, trust, and the ability to create something together in the moment.
Kick It Old School is about rediscovering that magic — when two dancers meet on the floor and can build something together through the music.
Throughout the weekend you can expect a schedule designed to maximize both learning and dancing.
Workshops
The weekend will feature 12 one-hour open-level workshops center around partnership topics such as connection, musicality, communication, and movement dynamics.
These classes are included with the weekend pass and are designed to give dancers tools they can immediately apply on the social floor.

Strictly Swing with Feedback
Instead of traditional competition placements, the weekend will feature leveled Strictly Swing divisions where dancers receive hand written feedback from judges.
The goal is growth, learning, and gaining insight into your dancing while still enjoying the excitement of a contest format.
Social Dancing
Expect lots of social dancing throughout the weekend with time built into the schedule between workshops and dancing late into the night.
Community & Connection
This weekend is about more than just classes and dancing. We’re creating opportunities for the community to connect in unique ways including:
• Thursday Night on the Town to kick off the weekend
• Friday Morning Beach Day at Pensacola Beach
• Staff Q&A / Story Time session where dancers can hear stories, ask questions, and learn from experienced professionals
• Fun contests and social activities throughout the weekend
