Class timetable
Drop-in swing dance classes
- No need to book, just turn up
- No previous experience needed
- No partner needed
- Start any week
Drop-in classes are where most people start learning to swing dance - they're fun, friendly and accessible. You don't need to be there every week, you don't need a partner, and all our drop-in classes include essential practice time. Often our drop-in classes are part of an evening where you can dance afterwards to live or recorded music.
