Hereford Jive & Swing was founded in December 2009 by a group of local dancers (not teachers) frustrated at the lack of local dances. During 2010 we organised a series of dances in Hereford, mainly 'record hops' but some bands also. In January 2011 Susan took over the solo running and organisation of the group and, after a year of several sell-out band nights alongside regular 'record hops', 2012 sees an expanded programme (see below). The Group is non-profitmaking with any proceeds going to cover investment in equipment and music, and to subsidise an increasing programme of live bands. The more support the dances get, the more we can organise - so come along and have some fun! And please give feedback!

Dancers of all styles are welcome, as are non-dancing partners who want to listen and watch. If you're a beginner or rusty, the dances are a great place to gain confidence and practise moves - especially the 'record hops' which are more relaxed than 'band nights'. If you have no partner, don't worry - we're a friendly lot and there are plenty of 'singles', so you won't be left out.

Sunday, 16 May Dance Night

Our next DJ dance night will be this coming Sunday, 16 May. As usual it will run 7-11.00 pm, cost £4.00 on the door and be at the Richmond Club, Hereford ... see venue details to the left. Once again DJ Steve 'Chalky' White will provide a fantastic mix of jive, swing, lindy, rock & roll tracks for us all to dance to. We welcome any dancers, or anyone just wanting to listen to the music and watch. Near beginners and those without a partner are very welcome and won't get left out. Email or ring us (details above) if you need more info.

Come along and enjoy it, it will be a great night out!
