Dance Classes • Club • Getting there • Admission Prices • Live music nights

Open every Tuesday! No need to book - just turn up! Start any time! Occasionally we feature great live music at C Jam after the classes as well as the regular DJs :- • Tuesday 7th September 2010 - Hep Chaps Trio PLUS - look out for our new monthly vintage dance party at The Bedford! - The 2 O'Clock Jump and also monthly workshops! NB Tuesday 14th September the whole venue is being used for a large charity event so C Jam will not be running that day - however that Friday is the 2 O'Clock Jump so you will still be able to get your dancing fix that week!!

About C Jam

We teach the original swing dance - the Lindy hop as danced in the great ballrooms of the Harlem Renaissance, such as The Savoy. We are dedicated to the Savoy style of the dance and this dedication over nearly 10 years has given the club the deserved reputation of the new home of Savoy Lindy hop in London. After the classes, top swing DJ's and occasional live bands play the very best swingin' tunes from the past to the present (Count Basie, Ella Fitzgerald, Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller through to Lavay Smith, Ray Gelato and Royal Crown Revue).

What to expect
Fun, fun, great music - and more fun! A typical night at C Jam attracts a crowd of between 50 and 100 people from all walks of life, and all age ranges (18+). Swing dancing is an increasingly popular pastime and is probably the most fun you can possibly have keeping in shape! It is very sociable - come with friends, a partner or on your own - everyone is welcome and you'll soon feel at home!
