Learn to swing dance- We teach Lindy Hop, Charleston and Jazz. Swing Dance embraces a number of dance styles that originated in the 1920’s - 1940’s. The great thing about Swing is its simplicity, making it an easy dance style to get in to.
Beginner and Improver Lessons
We run regular classes across the Island.
In beginners class we cover basic moves suitable for all beginners. We start an Absolute Beginners Class 3 times a year, usually January, April/May & September. But new people are welcome all year round.
Our Improvers class is aimed at people who have learnt some basic steps and want to take their dancing further. When appropriate beginners are encouraged to stay and join in with the Improvers programme.
