The Tampa Bay Beach Boppers is a "Non-Profit" Dance Club founded in 1989. We incorporated in 1990 and are dedicated to preserving the many styles of shag and swing dancing. The Tampa Bay Beach Boppers club is a member of the American Bop Association and the Association of Carolina Shag Clubs. Throughout the country shag and swing are known by different names. You may have heard of west coast swing, east coast swing, imperial swing, bop, jitterbug, hand dancing, etc. which are all forms of shag or swing.
TBBB also hosts a major 3 day event - BEACH BOOGIE . This event is held in August. We also have dance events throughout the year at the American Legion 2 Fridays a month. See our calendar for upcoming events.
