There will be a drop-in blues dance class (for beginners and experienced dancers alike) followed by social blues dancing in Spegelsalen 4/9, 2/10, 13/11 & 4/12. The classes will have different themes and together give a broad introduction to blues dancing.

Blues dancing is whole a family of dances with African American roots danced to blues music, it can for instance look like this when Philippa and Vivien dance https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Philippa+Svensson+and+Vivien+Nivesse+blues
