WE’RE BACK!

That’s right! Swing Soc is back for another term of classes, taught by the amazing Marcus and Ella from After Supper Swing! Our weekly lessons will start up again Thursday 1st February, and is open to everyone! Whether you’re a pro swing dancer, still finding your feet, or just want to try something new and meet loads of friendly faces, these lessons are open for everyone so don’t be shy to drop by! Sessions consist of a beginner Swing lesson from 6-7pm, which is then followed by social dancing until 8pm, after which we head down to Falmer Bar for a drink and to hang out.

Look forward to seeing all of you soon!
