Our Mission

SHE CAN SWING (SCS) is a free summer jazz program based in Seattle, WA for middle & high schoolers. SHE CAN SWING's mission is to promote female representation in jazz by giving students a supportive, fun, and educational space to engage in jazz & improvisation within a strong female led community. It is run in a combo format (rhythm section + horn players), where students will learn to play over jazz standards and how to improvise. They will also learn about various female jazz artists, and may even have the opportunity to receive direct training from local female guest artists! SCS will celebrate its 3rd year Summer of 2026- stay tuned!!
