Wear whatever you feel comfortable dancing and moving around in. Lots of people tend to wear simple jeans and a comfortable t-shirt …cowboy boots and hats optional!

No problem! Absolutely no dance experience necessary. All the steps will be broken down for you before each dance - simply join in with as much or as little as you like.

Don’t forget to bring a bottle of water with you!

Our class is held upstairs in the café by the lake, NOT the café right outside Crystal Palace train station. The entrance is via Penge Gate on Thicket Road and is about a 5 minute walk from Penge West station. Although the car park will be closed, the pedestrian gate will be open. Those of you who are local will know that Crystal Palace Park is undergoing extensive redevelopment at the moment so don’t be alarmed at the various bits of orange builder’s fencing at the Penge Gate entrance - just head towards the building on your left …and follow the sound of the music!
