1940s hen party dance class
Our 1940s Swing Era Dance Class is great for 1940s hen parties and birthday groups, or just groups of friends wanting a private dance class for a new experience.
See our videos page for clips.
Dance to infectious big band swing, and get taken back to the swinging 30s or wartime. No party in the thirties or forties was complete without dancing and music, no matter how modest. People would put on the wireless or the gramophone and dance! So if you want to get the feel of the 40s or 30s, then get dancing!
You’ll learn lots of fun vintage jazz dance steps such as boogie backs, shorty George’s, tacky Annie’s and smack the pony. Then you’ll learn a fun dance routine that you all do together, just for fun, or even to take away and dance at the wedding. Contact us for details and prices.
