  • Smooth Sailing at Cat’s Corner / Wednesday, March 25th!
    This Wednesday, March 25, our end-of-the-month theme night is here — and we’re going nautical. Join us for Smooth Sailing, a seaworthy night of live music, social dancing, sharp style, and just the right amount of maritime mischief. Dress to impress in your best captain, sailor, first mate, deckhand, yacht-club chic, mermaid, merman, or ocean-inspired look. Blue, green, and white are strongly encouraged, along with stripes, scarves, sailor hats, captain’s hats, life preservers, and any other dance-friendly nautical flair.
  • Cat’s Corner is back on Wednesday, March 4th!
    ✨ Save the date! ✨Cat’s Corner reopens Wednesday, March 4 at a fabulous new North Beach home: 435 Broadway. This historic room — formerly Mabuhay Gardens and Broadway Studios — once hosted one of San Francisco’s mainstay swing dances. We’re thrilled to bring swing back to this classic space. 🕺 Two rooms of classes — classes forming now🎶 Live music

What dancers and students are saying

I've danced at swing clubs all around the world, and Cat's Corner is one of the best. Great environment, great people and great music.

Cat's Corner has been a fun learning experience so far, and I look forward to taking several more months of classes here. I've been telling my friends all about it!
