The Jam Cellar April Fools’ Day
The Jam Cellar “April Fool!” video:
The Jam Cellar is a world-reknowned weekly swing dance party held in a posh, turn of the century mansion in Northwest Washington, DC on Tuesday nights. They have an awesome video blog that you all should subscribe to.

Yes, the Jam Cellar is only about 7 miles from my home, and attracts some of the best DJs and dancers in the Washington area. It can get very hot during the summer though, as the air conditioning is not very good. I would say Chevy Chase Ballroom (also NW DC) on Monday nights and Avalon Dance Studio near Baltimore on Thursday nights are also quite good.
The guy Jeff you see at the very beginning of the video accomplished a near-miracle with me during one of his classes–he actually managed to teach me how to do the “pop turn” correctly–I could not understand how to do it from three instructors before him.
