In our quest to make sure that you can dance to ANY piece of music we are introducing a new dance, the Bachata.

We will be recapping this in all classes this week, except for the Sunday night, Monday night and Wednesday afternoon classes (which will still do Merengue).

Bachata, like Merengue, hails from the Dominican Republic but has a more free-flowing rhythm.

We look forward to introducing you to this fun dance. Going forward the final dance in our rotation will cycle between Merengue, Mambo, and Bachata for all classes except those listed above which will still be Merengue.

Our One Dance Courses in both Waltz & Jive will be extended for an additional 6 weeks.

It is still possible to join the Jive course this week, but it is your last chance on this current extension and you’ll have to contact us to book.
