Upside Down delivers value through value-driven work.
Upside Down is
a social movement.
Our events are first and foremost about experiencing, connecting and feeling. We do not copy-paste, but create customized experiences.
However, having fun is not our only goal, we want to go further. 10 years of Upside Down (formerly: LouisLou) equals 10 years of active work around values such as inclusivity, sustainability and appreciation for African-American jazz culture. As a social movement, we spread our experience and knowledge through play. In an accessible and fun way, we challenge you to participate.

Upside Down is
a community builder.
As community builders, we grow and nourish others in a flourishing community. We support an ecosystem of dancers, musicians, artists and organizers. We also advise and assist other organizations and companies outside of the swing community.
Each year, we free up a budget to support 3 organizations with a social or sustainable purpose for free. This means that, as a client, you co-invest in a better world.

Upside Down is appreciative.
Upside Down has a passion for jazz & swing. In everything we do, we draw from the African-American music and dance culture. In jazz, you create experiences in which community, co-creation and personal expression are balanced.
Black Americans developed swing dance styles such as Lindy Hop, Charleston, Breakaway, Shag ... and (rhythm &) blues during the first half of the 20th century. As guests in another culture, Upside Down approaches this rich cultural heritage with recognition and respect, and we ask participants to do the same.
