Blues: Fishtail Mania
Solo and Partnered
Day & Time: Thursday, 19:00 – 21:15
Dates: 30.07.2026 – 30.07.2026
The Fishtail is an iconic move with a million possibilities and styles, from smooth swaying on an elegant jazz tune, to shaking your tailfeather on energetic fast blues. But unlocking all those possibilities takes practice - unlocking your hips, controlling your twists and turns, keeping rhythm and groove while sinking into your movement.
In this course you'll learn how to dance the Fishtail both alone and with a partner, and get your hips rolling to a variety of fantastic Blues and Slow Swing music.
What should I know before joining this course?
For this course, you don't need to have any specific experience dancing to Blues music. The course will be easiest if you have at least a few months' experience dancing Lindy Hop or other Blues or Swing dances. If you're not sure if the course is right for you, please feel free to ask us!
