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.

Tickets still available for The Heartbeats
There's a good crowd going to this dance on 18 December, but at the moment we do still have tickets left ... though I've sold a lot yesterday and today, and it's just been in the local papers, so no guarantee this will be the case by the weekend! So if you want to guarantee you ticket, ring me on 01432 357859 (Susan) to reserve tickets on the door. My computer access is limited at the minute, so phoning me is better than email. It should be a good night - they're a great band to dance to, or just come and listen and watch the action. Full details of times and venue, etc are in the post immediately below this.
