Shag Pile - Bethnal Green

January is a great jumping on point for new dancers, and for the next few weeks we'll focus on the essential elements, so you can quickly build a repertoire of useful moves.

Each week works as a stand-alone drop-in class, at which we start from the basics then build from there, so join us for one or two hours as you like - choose on the night.

Our curriculum includes information on the African American movers, shakers, music, and musicians of the Swing Era.

No partner required - just rock up. Please come early and be ready to dance from 7pm. Please bring flexible flat soled shoes and a bottle of water.

6:45 pm: Doors open

7:00 pm: Intro & first hour

8:00 pm: Second hour 

9:00 pm: Recap

Then it's off to the Camel Pub for refreshments and chat.

The option not to rotate partners remains in place for the comfort of students.

Venue: 

The Mulberry Hall, St Margarets' House, 15 Old Ford Road, London E2 9PJ
