Chicago SummerDance

Chicago SummerDance returns this year from June to September to offer multidisciplinary dance classes at parks across the city. Don't worry if you're not a seasoned dancer—all ages and skill levels are welcome at this annual dance series that lets you practice your jives, twirls and jumps. You can take lessons in everything from salsa and cumbia to swing and Afro dance. The season culminates with a three-day event in Grant Park, where you can watch performances from local dance troupes and show off some of the moves you've learned over the summer. For the full schedule, check the Chicago SummerDance site.
