Between 12.30-3.30pm, there’s going to be a whirlwind of dance, with swing DJs finding the rhythms you can’t resist. If you don’t know the moves, don’t worry, we’ll show you!
The first Swing class, ideal for complete beginners, start at 12.30pm, with easy music and kids welcome to join in with the adults.
