Welcome to Mrs. Dickie Bow's - Jive Dance Classes in Essex

With many years of dancing experience, covering a wide variety of retro dance genres and a passion about everything retro from cars to clothes, there’s no better place to scratch your itch to dance!

The classes at Mrs Dickie Bow’s are aimed at beginners who benefit from clearly structure delivery of moves and small sequences to get you out on the dance floor. You do not need to have any previous dancing experience. Our experienced dance instructor Rose will start with the basics and gradually build up until you start developing your own unique style for 50’s Rock and Roll style dancing and 1940’s Jive Swing.
