BSL interpreted | No experience needed
Going to a dance class can be scary! Unscary Saturdays are inclusive classes open to all ages and abilities, from professional dancers to untrained enthusiastic movers. The aim is to dismantle the unhelpful pressures and sense of intimidation that can often be felt in dance spaces.
This is a chance to try out dance styles that you’ve always wanted to give a go but felt too scared OR that you did long ago but feel out of practice with now. Come with a keenness to explore movement and an openness to try stuff. Children 12 years and under must be accompanied by a participating adult.
Hustle is a partner dance that originated in New York in the early 1970’s and got popularised with disco music. In this session you will learn the structure of the dance, the notion of leading and following, a few basic figures, and more about its history and the community in London.
Bring footwear that is not too grippy. There is no need to bring a partner as we will be switching partners.
