About Us

This Thursday, June 1st, 2023 at Wylin’s:

For our drop in class we will be reviewing the Polka steps and moves that we taught over the last month.

For our talk this week our very own Kaleb Jones will be presenting on “The Value of Human Life.”  Please don’t miss Kaleb’s talk, I think it’s going to be good.

Something new:

Due to severe investment losses brought on by the Biden administrations policies I am finding it difficult to cover Wylin’s Swing Euphorium’s operating expenses that amount to over $7000.00 per year, so I have decided to begin accepting donations again.

I will put a donation box on the table in the hallway at our front entrance and people can just contribute whatever they want or what God moves them to contribute and we will see what happens.

Our Ministry Leadership Team has also suggested doing fundraisers and I think that could be a fun and unifying thing.  If any of you have any fundraiser ideas that you would like to try then just set them up and let us all know.

Advanced classes at 6 PM, Drop in class at 7 PM, dance party till 10 PM

Christmas Ball TWO !!

YES!

You read that correctly!
Due to some of our dancers not being able to attend our Ball last Thursday and due to many of our dancers just not being able to get enough of Christmas Balls I have decided that we need a rematch!

So polish up your ruby slippers and let’s have a Ball ! And we can cellebrate New years too!

If the weather stays good The Ball will start at 7:00 PM so gear up for a fantastic evening of dancing!

Yes, dress nice for the event.

Please feel free to bring a few christmas decorations for the tree.

And by popular demand we will also be taking photos for our
Photo Wall so dress up for that as well.

Now, having said all that, if the roads by you or on your route to dance are not safe then do not take unnecessary risks and stay home and safe instead. Your well being is always more important than dance!

Wylin’s Update:

To all our current and past dear friends and fantastic dancers!

Would you like to share your personal story of how you came to discover Wylin’s Swing Euphorium?
Or maybe something about how your participation in social dancing has affected your life?
Or maybe something unique that you like about dancing with this group of friends?
Or anything else that you think might be interesting or entertaining to us all?

If so, just respond to this email or send your thoughts to us at
wylint@hotmail.com

If enough stories are submitted we hope to present them in a booklet for y’all to read at dance.

Some of the stories may even be shared on our website or on our future social media pages.

The dancer who sends the most inspiring story will win their very own collector box of Cousin T’s Famous Pancake Mix
(the official pancakes of Wylin’s Swing Euphorium)

Cousin T’s – It’s like candy in a cake!

So tell us your story! We can’t wait to hear of your adventures!

 

I recently asked our dancers if they would like to share how they discovered Wylin’s Swing Euphorium and how it has affected their lives.  I received several inspiring letters in response.  The letter that follows is one of them:

“Last year, I was working a lot of shifts for my school’s cafe at the Northwest Washington Fair. I looked at the schedule for the day and saw that a dance group was going to be performing that night. After my shift, I dragged my friend to the Banner Bank stage to come watch Wylin’s Swing Euphorium with me. It was the first night of the Fair and very hot. There weren’t many dancers that were able to make it, but what I saw made me immediately fall in love with the art of dancing. After they had finished, they were all gathered in a group off stage. I ventured over there to see if maybe I could join. They were immediately welcoming and a big part of the reason that I came the following week. Words can’t express how this community has changed my life. I have made new, but more importantly real friends here. I’ve reconnected with some old ones. But most importantly, I’ve grown closer to God. Even though I go to a good Christian school,  I was having trouble understanding it. The hardest thing for me at this school was the attitude of the people there. At Wylin’s Swing Euphorium, the people have made me understand what it is to live out your faith. This place truly is one of the best communities. Thank you for creating such an amazing place.

Sincerely, ________”

(Out of humility the the dancer who shared this beautiful letter asked that their name not be included)

The part of this letter that touched me most deeply was:

“But most importantly, I’ve grown closer to God.”

For all the friendship, art, connection and just shear fantastic fun that partner social dancing provides it is truly just an illustration of the even more beautiful reality of our connection with God.  And that, I think, is why social dancing is such a powerful blessing.  In a small way it feels like what one experiences when one is exalting and worshiping God.

Truly, we want our young people to enjoy the incredible blessing of social dance and all the amazing benefits and friendship it brings into their lives, but what we want even more for them is that they grow closer to God.  That is, by far, a more powerful blessing than all the other benefits of social dance combined.

When we started Wylin’s Swing Euphorium almost eight years ago we never imagined that God would bless our dance kids and us with such a privilege as to be used by Him to draw our precious young people to Himself.  I never cease to be amazed at His love and grace to us and to these outstanding young people whom we have grown to love so much.

This project continues until the end of the year so please feel free to share your story with us.  Here is the original announcement:

Would you like to share your personal story of how you came to discover Wylin’s Swing Euphorium?
Or maybe something about how your participation in social dancing has affected your life?
Or maybe something unique that you like about dancing with this group of friends?
Or anything else that you think might be interesting or entertaining to us all?

If so, just respond to this email or send your thoughts to us at
wylint@hotmail.com

let us know if you would like us to include your name or not and if you would like us to share your letter on our dance fellowship website, our dance Telegram page or our dance Facebook page

Past notices:

Our dance venue Closed as of Nov. 19th, 2020 due to Governor Inslee’s Covid tyranny dictates.

In case you missed our email and Faceboook page post announcing this very sad news I am posting it here on our website as well. when these unconstitutional restrictions are lifted, or Governor Inlsee is removed from office, we will be sure to let you all know that American freedom and liberty are ringing once again! and then we will have the biggest dance celebration since, well, like forever!

In the meantime I will continue bringing my rather large dance music amplification system to our very well attended Stop The Steal Rallies on the capital steps of Olympia Washington each Saturday at noon so we can present a very well received dance showcase for the entertainment and encouragement of our fantastic fellow patriots.

You can either just show up or you can let me know if you are coming. At any rate I guarantee you will have a blast dancing at these events! It’s an opportunity not to be missed!

Swing Free! Dance For Freedom!

Racehorse Falls Euphoric Hike!

Euphoric Hike ! Tiffany & I are organizing another short notice hike for this Friday the 15th of May to the beautiful and mysterious Racehorse Falls. (Friday is the only day this week with acceptable weather). This hike will involve a short easy walk to the upper falls and then a steep slippery hike down to the lower sets of falls and back up to the upper falls again and then back down the trail to return to the cars. As parts of this hike are quite steep good shoes are an absolute must and treaking poles are highly advised (we have several extra pairs of poles for people to use) Due to the steepness this is not recommended for small children. We will all meet at the parking lot of the Welcome Store – corner of Mt. Baker Highway and Mosquito Lake Road (5565 Mt. Baker Hwy Deming WA) at 11:00 AM Friday morning the 15th of May, 2020 except for those making arrangements to ride with us from our place (4950 Reese Hill Rd. Sumas WA) and will return in the mid afternoon. Be sure to wear good shoes/hiking boots, and perhaps a jacket. In keeping with the Whatcom county health department guidelines that answer the question: “What can I still do?” with “Go outside and exercise” – “keep six feet between you and those who don’t live with you” we will be doing just that as well as providing hand sanitizing wipes. If you or anyone you have been in contact with has been ill or if you are susceptible to illness you will not be able to come, of course. We are anticipating a fairly small group due to the short notice but these hikes are turning out to be more popular than anticipated so we may be surprised. So if if it seems like your parents could use a break from y’all and if you are up for a bit of adventure we would love to see you Friday morning the 15th of May 2020 at 11:00 AM at Welcome Store.

Euphoric Hike! to Maple Falls

Euphoric Hike ! Tiffany & I are organizing another short notice hike for this Friday the 1st of May to maple Falls. (Friday is the only day this week with acceptable weather). This hike will involve an easy walk and talk to a meadow and a short hike down to the falls and back again. (much less strenuous than the last one). We will all meet at our place (4950 Reese Hill Rd. Sumas WA) at 9 AM Friday morning and will return early in the afternoon. Be sure to wear good shoes/hiking boots, a jacket. In keeping with the Whatcom county health department guidelines that answer the question: “What can I still do?” with “Go outside and exercise” – “keep six feet between you and those who don’t live with you” we will be doing just that as well as providing hand sanitizing wipes. If you or anyone you have been in contact with has been ill or if you are susceptible to illness you will not be able to come of course. We are anticipating a fairly small group due to the short notice but these hikes are turning out to be more popular than anticipated so who knows? 😉 So if if it seems like your parents could use a break from y’all and if you are up for a bit of adventure we would love to see you Friday morning the 1st of May 2020 at 9 AM

Euphoric Hike ! Welcome to Mars.

Tiffany & I are organizing a short notice hike for tomorrow to a place nearby, where nobody ever goes, that we like to call Mars. We will all meet at our place (4950 Reese Hill Rd. Sumas WA) at 10 AM tomorrow morning and will return in mid afternoon. Be sure to wear good shoes/hiking boots, a jacket and maybe sunglasses and a hat. Treaking poles are a great idea too. You can put it all in a small backpack along with your water bottles and snacks. In keeping with the Whatcom county health department guidelines that answer the question: “What can I still do?” with “Go outside and exercise” – “keep 6 feet between you and those who don’t live with you” we will be doing just that as well as providing hand sanitizing wipes. If you or anyone you have been in contact with has been ill or if you are susceptible to illness you will not be able to come of course. We are anticipating a fairly small group due to the short notice and because many of our dancers don’t like to hike 😉  So if if it seems like your parents could use a break from y’all and if you are up for a bit of adventure we would love to see you tomorrow morning (Friday the 17th of April 2020 at 10AM 

Dance Canceled Until Further Notice
Starting this Thursday the 12th of March 2020

Our Dear Friends

Because a person in Whatcom County has tested positive for Coronavirus we will be canceling all further dance evenings and classes until further notice starting this Thursday the 12th of March, 2020.

We understand that many of you will be very saddened by this as you really look forward to our dances.  Trust me, we are going to miss you too because you are all very dear to us and we enjoy your company immensely.

But that is why we have decided to take this drastic measure.  We cannot bear the thought of any of you or any of your loved ones at home getting sick with this serious virus.  Social dancing involves a high degree of contact so it is an activity that is best avoided at this time.

I know it will feel to many of you like I am overreacting as no one in our families has been effected by the virus  but I would rather risk the loss of our dance academy than for a single one of you or yours to be harmed.  As they say, better safe than sorry.

Your understanding during this trying time is greatly appreciated.  When the danger is past we will email you all again and it is our sincere hope that you will return and that we can all be one big happy family again.

In the mean time please do continue to practice and enjoy dancing at home especially in preparation for our upcoming Dance Showcase on Saturday May the 30th.  To that end, here are a few tutorial and example videos that you can use to increase your dance skills at home:

These are tutorials for shuffle dance:

Culminating with our Country Christmas Ball on Thursday the 26th. And, something new for this month: The Swing Euphorium Advanced Team! That’s right! Those who already poses an intermediate skill in NC2 are invited to arrive early at 6PM for advanced training in additional NC2 moves. Our goal will be to attain a thorough proficiency in each new move. I will teach some of these new moves and our Advanced Team members will also be invited to search out new moves on their own and to teach those new moves to the rest of our team.

Many of our dancers have been asking for this kind of advanced training so depending on the degree of participation we may continue this new program into future months. If you would also like to help with set up please arrive right at 6PM and bring your enthusiasm.  Much looking forward to you joining us in what I believe may be one of our most fantastic endeavors!

We specialize in open, friendly, and stress-free dance styles. Most of our dancers are teenagers and young adults, though we also have younger and older dancers due to the large number of homeschool families who regularly dance here.

As everyone who dances with us has discovered, dancing is much easier, more fun, and more relaxing than they had anticipated, and everyone quickly becomes friends with everyone else.

One of the things I like most about our club is that our young men are true gentlemen, and our young women are true ladies – meaning that they truly care about other people. Our young men ask every lady to dance so no one feels left out. They escort them to and from the dance floor and treat them with honor and friendliness. Naturally, our ladies are gracious, cheerful and friendly in response. Most of our dancers are Christians, so they treat people with kindness, and try to be a real blessing to them.

Many good things happen because of this. Shy and timid people gain poise and confidence, and lonely people find a whole new world of true friends.

It has been one of the greatest privileges of my life to see the happiness and joy radiating from the faces of our dancers, and to see them making wonderful memories with their friends that they will cherish for the rest of their lives.

Dancing is an excellent way to bring joy, freedom, and friendship into people’s lives, and I really want to share this with many more young people in our area.

We welcome church youth groups to come for free and discover what a wholesome activity dancing really is, or to do a dance fundraiser for their missions project.
