Well its a bit hard to say where we dance...everywhere we can really...!

Some of us learn at Jitterbugs, in Marble Arch (Carisbrooke Hall) every Wednesday, taught by the lovely Julie Oram...after a few weeks jitterbugs is like a family...

Tuesdays are CJam in Balham, and then you can learn with Martin Ellis on sundays in Fulham, from a beginners level to advanced. Check their site SWINGLAND. Martin is a strong supporter of our events and parties. Recently he launched a very successful Thursday night Swing Thing in Hammersmith.

Other venues we go to are the 100 club, where there is a live band every Monday, and some times also on saturdays...they also have a class, but you might want to check their site for more details.

There is lots! Please email us if you have more info for this page...and for more info on classes please check the LINKS page.
