About this Event

On the four Thursday evenings of August, we'll have taster classes for you followed by social dancing!

Thereafter, we'll have faster and slower Jazz music for our social dancing, so that you can dance Lindy Hop, Blues, Charleston, Collegiate Shag, Solo Jazz, Slow Balboa, Balboa and more. The taster classes will be Balboa with Anne and Carsten on 6th August, Collegiate Shag with Murray and Ruth on 13th August, Solo Jazz with Sash on the 20th August and Blues with George and Greg on 27th August.
