Rock'n'Swing Dance Club Comets
Comets is a rock’n’swing dance club in Helsinki and the biggest dance club in Finland. All the dancer from beginners to advanced level are welcomed to our dance classes.
Joy of dance since 1992
The purpose of the club is to promote and develop dance culture, exercise and sports, especially in rock’n’swing dances. The activities of the club are based on the activities of volunteers and the proceeds of the activities are used for the dance sports activities of children, young people and adults.
We organise affordable dance courses and free dance parties for our club members. We also encourage our members to compete in Finland and internationally. We offer the following dances balboa, boogie woogie, bugg, blues, collegiate shag, fusku, jazz roots, lindy hop, rockabilly, rock’n’roll and west coast swing. We also have children’s dance classes for 3 to 9 years olds.
You can sign up to our partner dance course with or without a partner in myClub. We let people without a partner from the queue in the registration order so that there are about equal number of followers and leaders (±2). We rotate partners during the lessons.
