Ballroom Dancing

Ballroom dancing is definitely back in fashion and has never been so popular!!  

Ballroom refers to a variety of partner dances that are performed both socially and competitively. Standard ballroom dances include, among others, the Viennese waltz, foxtrot, tango, and the quickstep.

Ballroom dance competitions take place worldwide at different levels with competitors being judged on criteria including poise, hold, posture, and timing.  Today Britain leads the world in ballroom dancing, and the annual Open British Championship is the most important competition.

Most importantly, though, ballroom is great fun and excellent exercise.  Lots of people are trying their hand – or feet – at ballroom dancing!!  Anybody can learn it so why not give it a go?

Jenian School of Dancing

Run by experienced dance teachers, Jenifer and Ian Davison, the Jenian School of Dancing is a great place to learn a variety of different dances. The teaching style is very relaxed and the atmosphere is fun and very friendly.
