These classes are designed for dancers starting from scratch. They'll introduce the fundamentals of swing dancing, the basic shapes and some accessible moves you can use on the social dance floor. Each class will build up your swing dancing vocabulary so you can start creating and improvising with your partner. Expect to have fun and meet loads of new people, while you explore becoming a grounded, versatile and expressive dancer. We'll also share some of the amazing artists who have created jazz music and hope to inspire you to learn more about this rich, living culture.
