Frequently Asked Questions
Booking or Registration
We do not require you to book ahead, simple turn up on the night. Cash or card accepted at the door.
No Partner Required
We rotate partners during the class so you do not need to come with someone. Rotating partners is wonderful for meeting new people and improves your dancing much quicker as you experience different leads and follows. Swing and rock'n'roll are highly social activities so coming alone is totally fine.

Levels
The Beginners classes are suitable for beginners or intermediates looking to brush up on their basics. Beginners runs on a 4 week cycle starting at the beginning of the month. There are 4 cycles (months) focusing on different patterns for beginners to work through before progressing to Intermediate.
We recommend absolute beginners starting in the first week of the month as we will go through the basics nice and slow, if you have danced before you're welcome to join beginners in any week.
Intermediate is suitable for those who have mastered their basics, understand and can switch between 6 beat and 8 beat and have attended at least 4 months of beginner classes as well as a few social dances. Please discuss moving up from beginners to intermediate with your teachers.
Sickness & Covid
If you feel unwell please do not attend class. If you test positive after a class please notify us so we can inform the other students to exercise caution to limit the spread within the dance community.

We look forward to seeing you on the dance floor
