Blues dancing is a range of vernacular dances that developed alongside and were danced to blues music. It's incredibly varied - from lovely slow ballroomin' dances to quicker two steps to Delta sounds, but all have that driving pulse and grounded feeling which comes from its African American roots in the early 20th century. Fun (and sometimes funky) is our priority and we can get you dancing from the first step!
