Our Swing style also suits Rock n Roll music, and is where R'n'R dancing came from.
What I do, is teach small groups of people, with a usual class size of 10-20.
This means we can give good, individual, help & tips.
If you book the course, and pay in advance, you get 25% discount.
Pay as you go, £10 for the evening
Social entrance ( No Lesson) £5.
You can join us on any date (except week 6), if after week 2 please ring me and arrange to
arrive 15 mins before class for a free Beginners footwork lesson.
We desire to run a professional club, in the way we would have liked to have been taught,
so I have even detailed all the beginners lessons in writing, available on request.
Want a new social circle? We provide access.
Want to meet like minded people, ideal chance.
Do 1940's Re-enacting? The perfect accessory!
