“Everyone enjoyed the performance as well as the guest interaction afterward. Your dancers did a wonderful job approaching guest and convincing them to dance. I was one of them! The dancing continued all night long. You really did a great job setting the tone for the night. ”

“Jenna and James were fantastic – they played their “flash mob of two” parts perfectly!  The most reassuring part was how enthusiastically Jenna grabbed onto my idea during the planning stage.  Their dancing was better than I hoped for, and added an unforgettable sparkle to the party!  My heartiest thanks to them and to BCS!”

“Another GREAT JOB.  I loved the way you had Riley give a little history lesson on the dances of the period.  Your performances were OUTSTANDING!  I also loved your mingling & dancing with the guests!  Continued “breaking legs”!”

“Big City Swing did not shy away from the challenge of fitting a 6 piece band and a dance floor for two couples within a convention center booth. In addition to their flexibility, I was very impressed by the enthusiasm they brought to the performance. The dancers even engaged the audience, inviting people onto the floor for impromptu swing lessons.

I’m sure this performance played a significant part in upping our booth traffic that evening and making us stand out among the 100 + other companies and organizations in attendance.

I’d definitely recommend Big City Swing to anyone looking for entertainment for an event.”

“Thank you!!  The event had such a special feel to it, and we could not have done that without you guys.  The band was perfect and the dancing was absolutely fabulous!  You guys were “the cat’s meow!”  The residents are still a buzz this morning. “

“We enjoyed having you teach here SO much. It’s not very often that we get to bring instructors to Kirksville and it really was a treat to have individuals as talented as yourselves. You reminded a lot of us what we love so much about swing dancing and helped us find new ways to appreciate it.”
