Scholarship
The SwingDiversity scholarships are awarded each year to dancers who show dedication to the community and the desire and potential to create ripples throughout it. Applicants must self-identify the historically marginalized community to which they belong.
There are three categories: newcomer, amateur (WSDC Novice/Intermediate), and pro (WSDC Advanced/All-Star). The application cycle opens in the spring of each year. Recipients are notified virtually and announced publicly in early July at Wild Wild Westie in Dallas, TX.
Our annual scholarship has given $18,600 total to over 20 people, with 12 hours of private lesson instruction each!
