Floorplay Dance Clubs

If West Coast Swing is your favorite dance, then the Floorplay Dance Club is going to be just what you are looking for!  This group meets once a month at the Whirl & Twirl, located at 6949 Venture Circle in Orlando, to dance mostly West Coast Swing, but also East Coast Swing, Shag, Cha-Cha, Salsa, Waltz, and Two-Step.  Established in 1995, this club has grown to include chapters in Melbourne, West Palm Beach, Daytona Beach, Tampa, and other locations around the nation. The only thing you have to do to be a part of all this fun is go to the dances!

Floorplay Dance Club hosts their Orlando dance on the third Saturday of each month.  There is a dance lesson at 7:30 and the dance goes from 8:30 to midnight.  The $10 cover covers the class and dance, and there are refreshments and snacks available at an minimal charge.  You can contact the instructor and founder, Mark Traynor, at 407-973-9674 for more information.    

Don't have anything to do yet for New Year's Eve?  Floorplay Dance Clubs has a great 3-day event, the New Year's Swing Vacation, and it priced very reasonably at $100.  With Swing dance competitions, workshops, a New Year's dinner and professional show, and lots of dancing, this event has been a great hit in the past few years.  Read here for more information
