On September 15th, 2018, The Capitol Social became the first monthly Latin dance social in Madison, Wisconsin. What’s a “social”? In the Latin dance context, a social is quite simply a dance party where the focus is entirely on great music; making new friends; exploring the joy that dance brings; and doing so in an environment that is welcoming to all backgrounds and skill levels.
Socials are safe and enjoyable spaces “for dancers, by dancers.” Considerations such as having enough room and optimal floor surfaces to dance, danceable music (manageable tempos and very little to no mixing between songs), and dance partners that legitimately participate for the love of dance are the foundations of a good social.
In over 5 years of operation, The Capitol Social went from being a singular event to becoming an event production organization that offers various private and public events. We work with universities, student clubs, corporations, local venues, and state-sponsored events.
La Combi will get you moving to everything from classic salsa, perico ripiao and psychedelic cumbia!
