Inspiration Time
Spotlight on Duke Ellington
Day & Time: Tuesday, 19:00 – 20:00
Dates: 08.07.2025 – 08.07.2025
We'll learn a little about Duke Ellington's life, and dig into a few of his songs - with a little analysis we'll gain a ton of appreciation, and inspiration for our next dances.
This course is open to all, no matter whether you have tons of experience with swing, or none at all.
Inspiration Time is all about the culture of swing music and dance. It's not a dance practice class but a session to watch, listen and learn. You'll watch video clips or listen to music, and your teacher will share with you: culture, stories, inspirations. So, although it's not a dance class, it can have a huge impact on your dancing 😉 You can fully concentrate on what you're seeing and hearing, and get completely new insights and ideas. So sit down, relax, and get inspired!

Our Studio in the Ringstraße
Ringstraße 19A

The building is at the intersection of Ringstraße with Hildastraße, our entrance is at the north-east corner, from the Ringstraße.
The building is closed on evenings and weekends, please use the buzzer so we can let you in. Our studio is in the “souterrain” – go downstairs and follow the sound of swing music 😉
Public Transportation: many busses, streetcars, trains; stops “Hauptbahnhof”, “Ringstraße”, or “Römerkreis Süd”.
Parking: it can be a bit tricky to find parking spots, so you should plan in some extra time. There’s a little bit of free street parking available in the Ringstraße (with Parkscheibe), metred parking at Kaiserstr and Belfortstr (the metre is at Kaiserstr 60). You can also try a nearby Parkhaus: there’s the nearby Scheck-In Centre (entrance from Kleinschmidtstraße), or a bit further away the P1 (entrance from Poststraße).
