Book Your Free Trial Space in Advance with a Dance Partner
When joining our fixed-partner classes, please ensure you book and attend with a dance partner. We set a 2-person minimum booking for our fixed-partner courses so please book both places at the same time using our online booking system. Simply book your spaces on our free trial class at the class that suits you best. Our system will send a registration email to confirm the venue, date and time details - please check your spam filter if these don't arrive in your inbox within an hour of booking.
Some people are lucky enough to find a dance partner easily. For those without an obvious dance partner, asking within their own network of friends, family, colleagues, and neighbours can reveal somebody who is interested to give the class a go.
Don't have a partner? You can also look out for dedicated partner rotation courses, where you can book on your own.
Who Typically Attends Venue-Based Classes?
Age ranges vary wildly, from our minimum of 18*-80. Our 'Fixed Partner' classes are particularly popular with couples keen to share a hobby and spend quality time together. This covers both young professionals as well as couples rebuilding a fun social life, perhaps after years of child-rearing. We also see lots of mother/daughter, sister/sister, girl/girl, boy/boy & girl/boy friend pairings.
Often reluctant husbands are dragged along by enthusiastic wives, yet by the end of the free trial, it is the gents who can't wait to sign up for the course.
Limited Spaces at Venue-Based Classes... or Learn Online!
Venue-based learning is supported by free access to the same online course, which is pre-recorded and available on-demand. If venue-based learning doesn't suit you, then join our online school to learn exactly the same content anywhere in the world!
What To Expect...
What to Expect on Free Trial Day
Arrive just before the advertised start time for your lesson so the teachers can greet you. Groups are typically between 12 and 30 people, everybody is an absolute beginner so everybody will be experiencing similar nerves and excitement. Once it's time to start we do a gentle warm-up and teach a couple of simple moves which you can dance on a loop. Before the end of the session, the teachers will demonstrate all the moves coming up on the course.

Beyond Absolute Beginners
Once you've completed the Absolute Beginner SwingJive Course, you'll be able to follow on to the natural continuation course, either Intermediate Yellow or Intermediate Green, which can be taken in either order.
Teachers will demonstrate moves for the continuation course, or you can view them on this link. There is a series of 9 x 10-week courses, progressing along a pathway that you can follow, explained on this link.
Swingeasy, our weekly PAYG class and dance format, is a great sociable alternative too.
Beyond these courses, you can find new challenges via workshops and mini-courses, and have fun at our live band events. Swinging Balls are open to all. Our celebrated Swinging Balls have been running for over 20 years. They have built a splendid reputation, attracting the UK's finest jive and swing bands along with huge attendances.
Terms & Conditions
By booking a course we understand that you accept our terms and conditions, which can be viewed on this link. Terms and conditions cover issues such as payments and refunds, class sizes, arranging dance partners, and health and safety.

Whether you attend one of our venue-based classes, or trial online, you should be able to dance the following moves by the end of our free trial class:
Leader & Follower Roles
In partner dance styles, every duo consists of two roles working together: the leader and the follower. For a visual illustration, watch the video above, where Brooke (on the left) leads, while Debbie (on the right) follows.
Leaders are the architects of the dance—you learn the blueprint. For you, it’s less about 'performance' and more about 'navigation'.
Followers act as the interpreters of the music—you take the leader's suggestion and infuse it with your own intuition and style, bringing the joy that turns a simple step into a conversation.

You can book this course with or without a dance partner. On the 'Partner Rotation' courses, teachers will organise the room. You’ll meet everyone in the class naturally. It’s a zero-pressure way to break the ice. Partner rotation courses are open to any number of participants.
Want to stay with your dance partner throughout? You can also lookout for our 'Fixed Partner' courses, where you book with your partner and stay with them for the duration of the course.
Who Typically Attends Venue-Based Classes?
Our 'Partner Rotation' classes are perfect for anyone who wants to experience the joy of dance, regardless of who you come with. Whether you're flying solo, or bringing a group of friends, you can still join the fun!
Solo Participants: Meet new people in a supportive environment.
Groups: Bond with your friends and family while learning a new skill together.
Couples (who want to dance with others): Share a hobby and meet new people.
