Happy Easter Everyone! No classes this weekend

Just a quick reminder that there are no classes this weekend on Sunday or Monday.

Given that we’re a weekend class we always take a break on bank holiday weekends but endeavour to be open the rest of the year, with just a few exceptions.

I look forward to seeing you all again on Sunday 27 April for Lindy Hop classes and Monday 28 April for Solo Jazz Roots and until then, take care and have a great weekend.
