Every Wednesday during the term UCanDance offers you the chance to escape the stress of study and hit the dance floor. No experience needed, beginners are encouraged to give it a go. You don't even need to bring a partner, we swap dance partners throughout the class - so you'll meet and dance with a bunch of different people. If you'd rather dance with someone you know that's cool too! Classes are open to everyone, you dont need to be a student or a member of the club (we'd love you to join though!).
For semester 2 we're running Mega Mid-week Modern Jive. A favourite style of ours, Modern Jive is an easy partner dance with simple footwork. It's danced to almost any kind of music.
- Join us from 7pm to meet fellow dancers before class starts. There's usually someone new each night, so you won't be alone!
-
Imrovers MJ starts at 7:20pm - this class is for people who have done some Modern Jive before and have a grasp of the basics. We teach variations of basic moves and fun styling options.
-
From 7:50 till 8pm we take a short break for social dancing
-
Beginners MJ starts at 8pm - this class is for everyone! Over 45 minutes we teach 3 moves that you can use on the dance floor straight away. Every beginners class is suitable for new dancers, you don't have to know anything to join.

After class we keep the music playing till 10pm for you to practice the moves you've learnt or hang out with friends.
