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.

The Jiveoholics, Sunday 18 November, Hereford


Don't leave it too late to get your tickets to see the fabulous 'Jiveoholics' who play our next dance on Sunday, 18 November at The Richmond Club, Hereford (see separate tab for venue details). The Monmouth based band bill themselves as the hottest jump jive and swing dance in Wales, and their packed dances show this to be true - they sold out for us in Hereford last year - so make sure you get your ticket in time. Ring me on 01432 357859 or email herefordjive@btinternet.com or see Coolmoves Dance Jive teachers at Bartestree, Ludlow, Bishop's Frome, Leominster or Leigh & Bransford. See www.jiveoholics.co.uk for sample tracks and band info. Hope to see you there.
