A few of us are heading to Nottm Contemporary Cafe Bar tonight to enjoy the wonderful Me & Mr Jones. Our lovely Jim will be on the decks between the sets too so we’re thinking there’ll be some great tunes to listen and dance to all eve – happy days!
It’s free entry from 8pm till late and the band are due on at 9pm so come along and join us. More details on the NLH diary page
Here’s our latest newsletter. We’ve already gotten off to a great start this year …
Enjoy and get excited for more fabulous things to come this February and beyond.
Starting, of course, with classes starting back this Sunday 2 February at a The Old School Hall with me and Martyn.
See you then!
Just been informed that venue has changed for tonight’s Social Dance.
Now at Bread and Bitter in Mapperly. See Face book event for details.
Kate says Big Sorry for Short Notice – and promises it will still be fabulous.
Fab times ahead for Nottingham Lindy Hoppers today. We’re taking a break from classes while I’m away teaching and dancing at DJam Swing Dance Camp up in Durham so nothing happening at our Old School Hall in Sneinton (So no classes today folks, we’re back next Sun 2 Feb)
… However …
It’s time to get social dancing!!
Kate and Becky (2 of our regular Nottingham Lindy Hop dancers) have organised a FREE social dance at the AEDA Arts Academy at the bottom of Hockley (nr Desi Downtown and Bunkers Hill).
There will be great music, a fab space to dance and tea and coffee available at Becky’s Global Cafe (at AEDA) plus you can BYO food and drink if you like – make it a Fuddle and bring things to share 🙂 ).
It’s a wonderful opportunity to hang out, swing out, chat, dance and generally have a ball with your fellow Nottingham Dancers practicing all those new moves from your regular classes. All are welcome!
The only thing to note is that you need to get to AEDA between 7 and 7.30pm as we need to keep the doors locked while we’re using the centre (kind of like a proper old school secret dancing venue 🙂 ) So be there and don’t miss out!
Dancing will go on to at least 10pm maybe longer 😉 oh and did I mention it’s free!!

Hope you all have a fabulous time, I’m really looking forward to hearing all about it and seeing the pictures 🙂
See you all back at classes next week on Sunday 2nd February. Lisa xx

It’s that time of year again folks … Christmas Party Time in Sneinton!
We’ll be kicking off at 6pm to dance our flashing reindeer socks off through till 10ish. There’ll be a fun taster class and lots of great tunes to shim sham, snowball and social dance too and as usual we’ll be inviting everyone to bring a small donation to our fuddle. Bring something savoury or sweet add it to the table and we all dig in after the taster class.
Everyone is welcome, wherever you usually dance. The more will definitely be the merrier.
Entrance on door £4.
This will be our last class day for 2013 – so come and join us to celebrate a great year – we’d love to see you all 🙂
Shim Sham this Sunday in Sneinton!
Come along and learn this classic routine ever Lindy hopper should know. It’s great fun and something a little different.
It’ll be £5 and we’ll run the learning over the whole session from 5.30 to 9 taking breaks along the way where we’d usually break for a change of class. If you can only make a part of the session (at the times you usually attend classes) don’t worry, you’ll still learn a lot in that part of the session to make it worth your while. Plus there’ll be hints for those more experienced on how to take your Shim Sham to the next level.
Look forward to seeing you tomorrow. Here’s a little inspiration in the meantime 🙂
Looking forward to seeing lots of you in class today. We’re back!! 🙂
Hi all

Hello all!
As discussed at classes last Sunday, we’ll be taking a break for the next 2 weeks with no Lindy Hop classes on Sunday 20th and 27th October.
This only effects Sunday Lindy classes. Monday’s solo jazz classes will continue as usual.
Looking forward to seeing you all back for more fabulous Lindy Hop on Sunday 3rd November!
