C Jam runs on Tuesday evenings at The Bedford

Beginners/improvers class - 6.45pm-7.45pm
For those new to swing dancing the evening starts with weekly drop-in classes aimed to make those first steps as straightforward and enjoyable as possible. Covering all the basic steps and rhythms of Lindy hop - different material is taught each week and the classes are designed so that you can join any time and you can progress without needing to be there every week. No previous experience required. Fun, social and informative!

Practice time/social
In between the classes there is time to practise - and to grab a drink from the bar!

Intermediates class - 8.15pm-9pm
Challenge yourself and move your dancing to the next level! You need to be familiar with Lindy hop basics including swing out, Lindy turn and partnered Lindy hop Charleston to take this class. These steps are covered in our beginners/improvers classes and workshops.

Social dancing - 9pm-10.30pm
After the classes it's dancing time - swing out to the very best recorded music from the 1930s, 40s & 50s. Newer recordings are also played - provided that they really do swing!

Live music
Once a month or so we have a live band for the social dancing. Booking is recommended for band nights (although you can just turn up), and we finish at the later time of 11pm.
