Swell for newcomers: we start with 45 minutes of guided improvisation led by a professional dancer — a playful way to step into dance without fear or pressure. Then comes one hour of DJ set, where movement is completely free. All barefoot, without alcohol, and without words: nothing stands in the way of the joy of dancing together. No need to ‘know how to dance’ — there’s no technique or choreography required. Swell is open to everyone, regardless of age or physical condition. It’s the joy of dancing together, without waiting until 2 AM or the next festival.
