Dance @Home: Courses

We're very excited to bring you our series of courses focusing on some of our favourite styles of blues. Blues is a family of African American music and dance styles. We believe that best way to connect with and express the music is to take a deep dive into the history, culture and sounds of each style. Each class is packed with plenty of dancing along with stories, videos and info about the history and key artists. Get ready to geek out!

Classes happen live twice a week on Zoom - you choose the time that suits you best:

  • Tuesday at 8pm UK / 9pm CET
  • Sunday at 1pm UK / 2pm CET *repeat class

Each course is either 4 or 6 weeks long. You can join in the first 2 weeks of the course.

More info and registration for our upcoming courses are available below.

  • Developing our understanding of musical structures and rhythms to add musicality and variety to our dancing
  • Lots of blues moves and idioms along the way
