New Modern Jive Classes In Caithness

9th January 2011

Learn a new skill that's fun and helps to keep you fit. Learning Modern Jive is a great way of meeting new people and you don't need to bring a partner. The biggest draw back of some dances, if your new to dancing, is that you spend time and money learning the moves but then find there is nowhere to put what you have learnt into practice. This is where Modern Jive comes into it's own, because it can be danced to a huge variety of music from Rock & Roll to Salsa, R & B to Country, Swing to Jazz and even to Reggae.

Not only does the variety of music make Modern Jive more pleasurable to dance to but the basic footwork is simple and easily learnt, even if you've two left feet!! You will rarely get bogged down with complicated or precise foot work instructions, instead the emphasis is on learning moves as a whole. You will be able to dance at nearly any event you go to where music is played, from family parties, weddings and when on holiday, dancing to music from the fifties up to the new releases of today.

So start something new for the New Year with Steve Hicks who has been teaching dance in the North for the past 5 years. Steve will be starting up new beginners classes from 7:00 to 8:30PM in Thurso at the Girl Guides Hall on Tuesday 25th January and in Wick at the Boys' Brigade Hall on Wednesday 26th January. Classes cost £5/person or £8/couple. Check the What's On section for more details.
