Keep Warm thisWinter with Charleston a Go-Go!
Solo Charleston
Looking for some escapism from the stresses of modern life? Get ready to kick up your heels and party like it's 1929! Our mood-boosting Charleston classes give you the chance to switch off, have fun and learn some of the most joyful and iconic dance steps of the Jazz Age - think everything from the Black Bottom to the Bee’s Knees!
This November, we'll be dancing to upbeat, high-energy seasonal swing song, "Hang Your Lights" by Jamie Cullum. Inspired by classic artists like Louis Prima and Ray Charles, it oozes big band energy and is the perfect blend of Charleston and theatrical jazz to ease us into the winter months.
With an emphasis on fun and inclusivity, no previous dance experience is required. As always, every course also includes weekly online tutorials you can access on demand, so you can dance whenever the mood takes you.
The six week Autumn term starts week beginning Monday 2nd November. Full class timetable and course dates can be found here
If you'd like to try a class first, with no further obligation, all the information about November taster sessions can be found here
Sixties a Go-Go!
Rat your hair like a teenage jezebel, and work on that flamboyant flip! One of the UK's only specialist Sixties dance classes is right here in Sheffield, and this November we're celebrating the John Water's kitsch, cult classic, with a Hairspray Take-Over!
Over the six weeks we'll be twisting, mashing and jerking our way through the most uplifting, authentic Sixties dance crazes, alongside learning iconic choreography inspired by the Broadway musical remake. You'll also get weekly online tutorials, so you never have to stop your dancing feet...
It's accidental exercise, disguised as pure joy!
Fun fact! John Waters achieved the hyper-authentic, 1960s dance choreography for Hairspray by going straight to the original source—the real-life dancers he grew up watching in Baltimore on The Buddy Deane Show!
