Blue Mondays Bristol

Blue Mondays Bristol Welcome to Blue Mondays, the night dedicated to spreading blues dancing in Bristol! Don't know what blues dancing is? If this is your first time then it's free.

Every Monday at Small Bar, King St. 📌 [B.H. 📆 check here for updates]️ ⏰️ Class 7:30-8:30pm +️ Social (open to all) 'till 10:30pm 🍻 Every 1st Monday: Fundamentals class 🩰 Beginners-friendly, everyone is welcome! 🌈 Come join us for some bluesy fun! 💙 Well, here's a great intro video by our friends in Paris! https://youtu.be/rpVoCEixMSo

We're a community of dancers in Bristol who meet every Monday for a blues dance class followed by a couple of hours of social dancing. Blues is a great way to get into partner dancing - with a gentle learning curve and degendered teaching, we make sure there is space for everyone. With a focus on connection and improvisation over very complex sequences of steps, we guarantee that by the end of your first session you'll be grooving to some great tunes on the social floor! All of our classes run as drop-in sessions, suitable for complete beginners to come along without needing to sign up. There's no need to come with a partner, most people come on their own. We change partners regularly during classes. Class: 7:30-8:30pm
Social: 8:30-10:30pm

Where: Upstairs at The Boardroom on St Nicholas Street

How much: £5 for class or social, £8 for both. If you can't afford that then please still come and dance with us and you're always welcome to pay-what-you-can.
