7pm: Bachata

A beginners class teaching basic footwork, movement and partner connection of this latin style of dance. No dance experience is required. We swap partners throughout the class, so you don’t need to bring a partner. It also helps you to learn faster and meet more people! If you’d prefer to stay with a friend throughout the class that’s fine too.

8pm: Line Dance

Learn 5-6 fun, synchronised dances each night. We start fresh each week, so you can join us any time! Some of our favourite songs to dance to include…

  • Shivers – Ed Sheeran
  • A Bar Song (Tipsy) – Shaboozey
  • S&M – Rhianna
  • Holding Out For A Hero – Adam Lambert

During class our teachers will walk you through a sequence of movements step-by-step. Then we put on a song and give it a go. The sequence is repeated several times over the course of a song, so there’s plenty of time to get into the groove. No need to worry about getting it perfect, we all muck up from time to time!

Location: Ernest Rutherford 140

7pm: Hip-Hop Bharatham

Feel like moving? Feel like feeling while moving? Come join our Bharatanatyam + Hip Hop Bharatham sessions — where every beat is a burst of emotion and every move tells a story. It’s not just dance; it’s an emotional movement — a way to get in touch with your inner world and express it through rhythm, grace, and a little bit of sass.

New to classical? Never tried hip hop? Perfect. This is a safe, expressive space for everyone — whether you’re all rhythm or just vibin’ in your own way. Wear your skirts… or don’t. Just show up as YOU. We’re all about connection, creativity, and community.

Let’s move, feel, and create magic together!
