Ontario	This page focuses primarily on websites, dance studios, teachers, and businesses in Canada. Note: The information on this webpage is provided mostly by the local venues and dancers. This webpage is part of a larger website run by someone who is focused on swing dancing in Boston, Massachusetts, USA and this page is provided as a convenience to readers who might be interested in looking for possible dance venues in Canada. However, I do not live there and do not have the time or money to call every venue regularly for updates (I don't make money off dancing). With that in mind, I suggest calling up the dance venues to confirm their dance events. Please write to dancenet@havetodance.com with any new information that you'd like to share. Please take a look at the list of frequently asked questions before writing in. Please note that the venues aren't always diligent about letting me know about changes so *call ahead*.
