The Hop Bangkok

School

Bangkok has become a utopia for swing dancers from around the world, all because of one dance studio: The Hop. This studio is home to Bangkok’s large swing community. The Hop opened on October 27, 2012, and this dance studio has been turning heads and attracting some big crowds for its social nights ever since. The Hop is a space that encourages everyone to pursue and embrace art. This studio also offers a wide variety of workshops on top of their dance courses, such as a musical theater workshop for kids. If you have the time, we highly suggest taking one of The Hop’s month-long lindy hop courses. It is here you will get your groove on and meet some amazing, like-minded dancers as well as build a global community with your fellow swing dancers. You will find The Hop’s dance studio just a short walk from the BTS Skytrain station Chong Nonsi.
