Who is this course for?
Our "Dance in a Day" courses are perfect for people who want to learn to dance but don’t know where to start.
Do I need any skills or knowledge?
No experience is necessary. Our teachers are experts at teaching beginners.
Lead or Follow?
This is a partnered dance so you will need to sign up as a couple and decide which of you is the lead or follow. We don’t mind which role you do! Due to Covid restrictions, we won’t be rotating partners during the class and you’ll be dancing with your partner throughout. Please email info@swingpatrol.co.uk if you have any questions about these roles.
How we're keeping you safe
We are following the latest guidance to ensure our staff and dancers are safe. To comply with government guidance and to support Test and Trace, Swing Patrol will collect a name and phone number during the booking process.
- We have limited the number of tickets available, and all tickets must be booked in advance to access our building. This means that we will not be accepting walk-ups.
