Description of dancewithus.ch
dancewithus.ch appears to be a Swiss dance-school and cultural-program website focused on West African dance and drumming. The page metadata references "Tanzschule Basel" and describes dance and drum courses, workshops, performances, cultural trips to Senegal, and projects for schools and institutions. The screenshot also shows a gallery-style homepage with class and workshop imagery, which is consistent with an arts, education, or community-culture offering.
Based on the domain name, on-page text, and linked media, the site appears to promote in-person classes, performances, and related cultural activities rather than software downloads or anonymous lead-generation content. The presence of embedded video platforms and references to affiliated domains suggests it may be operated by a small organization, instructor, or local cultural initiative connected to dance and drumming activities in Basel, Switzerland.
Safety Assessment for dancewithus.ch
Scan results are mixed at the time of this scan. A multi-engine malware scan reported 9 detections out of 89 security engines, with several engines classifying the domain as malicious, phishing, or malware-related. At the same time, the page content visible in the screenshot appears to be a legitimate dance and drumming school website, and a separate website malware scan reported no flagged files among 16 scanned items and no suspicious external links among the sampled resources.
Blacklist and threat-database checks were clean at the time of this scan, including major phishing and malware blocklists, and the domain's IP was not listed on the checked mail-reputation blocklists. This reduces the likelihood of a broadly confirmed active threat, but it does not fully offset the relatively high number of security-engine detections. The domain is also relatively new at about 1.4 years old and has no visible traffic ranking, which may modestly increase uncertainty.
Because the visible content looks benign while multiple security engines still flagged the domain, these findings may reflect either a false-positive cluster or a risk that was not evident from the homepage alone. Based on these findings, this website may pose potential risks to visitors.
Technical Description
The site uses a valid Let's Encrypt SSL/TLS certificate with expiry listed as 2026-10-25, and it is hosted on an nginx web server at IP address 80.74.146.140 through METANET AG in Rorschach, Switzerland. Nameservers are ns1.futura.metanet.ch and ns2.futura.metanet.ch. DNSSEC appears to be unsigned, which is common but means DNS responses do not benefit from DNSSEC validation.
From the available scan data, no malicious files were identified in the sampled website content, and linked resources appear to include standard site assets plus embedded media from mainstream video platforms. The main technical caution is not the hosting setup itself, but the discrepancy between clean file/content scanning and the 9 out of 89 security-engine detections, which warrants some caution at the time of this scan.
