Intro to Partnered Charleston

The Charleston is vibrant improvised dance popular in the 1920s and 30s and today! In this course we cover two different styles of partnered Charleston - the 1920s version that you might see in the musicals and movies of that era and 30s Charleston, the kickier version from the swing era.

This four week course is open to complete beginners. It's a fun introduction to social partner dancing and a gateway to other related dance styles.

You don't need a partner to book on.
