We have booked 6 INCREDIBLE venues for the workshops this year so our students can have room to move! All within a few blocks from each other, these workshop venues are in the heart of Capitol Hill in Seattle. All venues have hardwood floors!!

Workshop Locations

Early sign in registration is going to be on Friday evening at the Kane Hall Foyer. I encourage everyone to show up at the early registration to receive your registration packet and wristbands. Remember, your wristband gets you into ALL of the dances, workshops and lectures. If you cannot make it to the Friday Registration, please show up Saturday morning at Knights of Columbus to the welcoming orientation and to sign in and get your packet or register.

***If you are arriving after the Kane Hall registration has closed AND you have paid for the weekend workshop, you may pick up your packet at the Friday evening dance. If you have not paid, you will be able to attend the dance, but will not get your packet and wristband until Saturday morning at Knights of Columbus.

Time: 5-6:30pm sharp on Friday night before the show and during the Red Square Jam

Friday Check in Location: Friday Check in Location: Kane Hall is located on the University of Washington Campus.

Please show up by 9:30am (audition starts at 9:45am sharp) (classes start at 10:30) if you are signed up for either the Advanced or Masters track. These are audition only tracks so you MUST show up. Please do not be late since we will have a short amount of time. The audition is very low key...everyone will be rotating between different partners social dancing to mid tempo music. You will be placed in the appropriate track...either Intermediate, Advanced or Masters. The decision is relative to the other dancers auditioning. Location: Knights of Columbus, 722 East Union Street.

Please show up by 10:00am (classes start at 10:30) to get warmed up and to be welcomed to Camp Jitterbug. We will answer any questions at that time, introduce the helpers, explain the venues, and more important details. Location: Knights of Columbus, 722 East Union Street.
