Swing Social Dance

One night a week you just dance, with no class. No course, no level: there's the music, and whoever wants to takes the floor. At the counter there's always someone who never takes the floor all night, and they're there for the music, for a drink and to watch.

No class

Nothing is taught: you practice, or you watch how it's done. Someone who just started dances with someone who's been at it for twenty years.

Even if you don't dance

The Banco A Ristoro is open, the kitchen is cooking, and sitting down doesn't commit you to anything.

5 Rhythms

by Alessia Ambu

Two hours of free dancing, no steps to learn: five rhythms one after the other, on your own and among others.

What it is

The 5 Rhythms are a movement practice born in the Seventies from Gabrielle Roth. There are no figures or choreographies to learn: you follow the music through five rhythms — flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical and stillness — which one after the other form a wave. You dance on your own and among others, and everyone moves however it comes.

To be there

To enroll, write or call the Renny, which passes the request on to whoever runs it.

Musical Brunch

The second Sunday of the month: sweet and savory buffet, live music, and all the time you need.

No rush

A moment made for taking your time and sharing it, in a space that's elegant, unusual and welcoming.

Book a table

From 12:00 to 3:30 pm. If you're coming as a group you can book, and you should: the second Sunday the lounge fills up.

To be there

Swing Showcase Competition

The stage is yours: a three-minute choreography, any style you like, solo, in a couple or in a trio.

What it is

The Renny turns into a little Parisian theater for a day devoted to performance. You bring on stage a choreography of no more than three minutes — Lindy Hop, Jazz, Boogie Woogie, Charleston, Balboa, Shag, Tap — with no split by discipline: the piece can be original, a reworking or inspired by a historic routine. Judging looks at talent, technique, musicality, stage presence, entertainment and attention to detail.

cultural exchanges

Wednesday

16Dec · 7.00 pm

Language Aperitivo in English

The third Wednesday of the month, an hour of spoken English with an aperitivo, and the swing night right after.

Then you stay

Drinks and snacks are included, and so are the icebreaker games. The swing night follows.

Who comes

Students, expats, people here on Erasmus, travelers — and anyone who wants to meet new people in Florence.

To be there

Admission: €20 per meeting plus the Renny membership card, which is required
