It's a small and cosy bar where swing tunes are played and a small lesson given and some dancers come along and have a drink. The lesson will be a short lesson, at about 9.00pm.
Refine your Balboa with Dan Guest and the stunning Paula Ryan.
That's right, late march at Clapham is... BLUES TIME! Our chance to slow it down, take out all those crazy footwork patterns and learn the newest swing dance that's sweeping the world. Blues is cool, smooth, and perfect for 3am when you don't want to go to sleep. Whether you've been 'bluesing' for ages or this is your first time, you'll leave this class with a whole lot of cool things to dance, and a thirst for more of this addictive little number.
Be sure to check this event out each month. A night of social dancing to some of the best swing tunes. Our spectacular swing dance will be held at our Brick Lane venue and will feature an introduction lesson at the start of the evening and then feature a whole lot of dancing and something a little different every time.
