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, 10 October - next dance night

Our next DJ Dance night is Sunday 10 October. Please come along, you'll be very welcome. DJ Steve will be providing the normal mix of great music for any jive and swing dancers out there (jive, lindy, balboa, etc), and as usual there's no need to worry if you're just a beginner or on your own ... you won't get left out. It's at the Richmond Club - details to the left column - starts at 7.00 to 11.00 pm, £4 on door. Contacts at the top of the screen if you need more info. Look forward to seeing you there!
