Dance Is Life
Lindy by the Lake
We are a super low-key, super-secret, no-fuss, no-muss gathering of Lindy Hoppers who make music and dance in an all-inclusive, all-ages, all-skill-level environment.
Join us by Lake Merritt
We gather at Oakland’s Lake Merritt near Lakeshore Drive and E 18th Street, dancing on the cemented area by the water. For the latest dates and updates, check out our Facebook Page.
Our swing dance events are about community, meeting new people, and enjoying fun 1930s and 1940s swing music outdoors.
Bring a friend who has never danced before, or someone who just loves live music and sunshine. Come hang out with us!
