  • E-Board Positions Open w/ UCSB

    UConn Swing & Blues is currently recruiting new board members!

    For those who may not be familiar, UConn Swing & Blues is a social dancing club that meets on Tuesdays every week to teach dance lessons and practice dance skills. Our club is beginner-friendly and an LGBTQ+ safe space. You are not required to have prior dance experience or a dance partner to participate in our lessons! We primarily teach African American vernacular dance styles, particularly East Coast Swing and Lindy Hop and blues. 

    Interested in running for an e-board position? We’re looking for people to fill 2 priority positions ASAP: Treasurer and Secretary. We’re also looking for people to fill various other board positions including: cultural chair, event coordinator, social media chair, fundraising chair. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, UConn Swing & Blues is operating at a lower capacity, meaning this is the best time to join the board to learn about your job in a time of low-stress! If you’re interested in learning more about what each position entails, please reach out to uconnswingandblues@gmail.com to learn more!

    We encourage everyone who’s interested in applying for a position to come to one of our in-person lessons to meet the board and learn more about what it’s like to be a part of this club. To apply, please fill out our google form, and we’ll reach out to you soon after to talk about your application! We can’t wait to dance with you!!
