Because we’re stronger together than we are apart, Must Dance Swing will be under the wing of the Hot Club of Durham starting in November. You may have seen our new oversized postcards with numerous pictures of Hot Club & MDS events in the community. With this merger, we endeavor to create and support a stronger, more vibrant community of swing dancers in Durham and surrounding areas. The values of each organization are mirrored in the other, namely:
- A commitment to the social well-being of the individual and extended group of dancers (this means fun),
- Support for continuing study of dancing and opportunities for performance (this means passion),
- Encouraging dancers to travel outside their comfort zone–literally–by attending regional and national swing dance events (this means challenge and connection to the larger community).

Hot Club of Durham, now with classes AND dances!
What will change? Information on the Must Dance Swing website will be moved to the Hot Club website. Soon you’ll be able to register and pay online for your classes. If you pay by check, you’ll make it out to “Durham Swing Dance LLC” instead of Rebecca Brightly.
What will stay the same? Same awesome teachers, same sweet classes, same studio location.
What’s next? A LOT of changes are in store for Hot Club. You’ll want to stay tuned in very closely to see what we do next
Who is MDS? Rebecca Brightly has been the sole owner of Must Dance Swing for nearly two years, and has enlisted the help of both Cliff Dyer and Joe Jackson as co-teachers during that time.
Who is Hot Club? Rebecca, Joe, and Nicole Deinert are the owners of Durham Swing Dance, LLC, which runs Hot Club events. Cliff also participates strongly, especially in web affairs.
