Cardiff Rock and Roll Dance Class

'Cause I'm a Fujiyama Mama, and I'm just about to blow my top!' - Wanda Jackson

Planning a hen weekend for a rockabilly chick and you're off to the Welsh capital? Throw in a bit of the Cardiff Rock and Roll Dance Class for some throwback ballroom dancing! It's a brilliant way to sort your hen do theme and get your fancy dress on point, ladies!

The whole group will love this fun lesson, which turns hens into hipsters. Take the basic side rock, add a back step, throw in an underarm turn and you have a simple but brilliant routine set to Bill Haley's Rock Around the Clock.

'We're gonna rock 'til you drop, we're gonna rock this town.' - Stray Cats

Rock 'n' roll dance classes are aimed at beginners so don't worry if you haven't tried ballroom before. The dance teachers are all super patient and great at boosting confidence. You'll be stepping, swinging and turning before you know it. Start with a warmup, learn the beginner steps and then combine them to music. Feel the beat, get a rhythm going and you've cracked it!

If you're after a vintage hen party, Cardiff is a great choice. Go retro with a rock 'n' roll dance class and then jive your way over to the city's Fashion Quarter or head for the award-winning Oxfam Boutique on St Mary's Street, where you'll find a whole treasure trove of fabulous designer vintage threads.
