Dance school workshops
Do you teach swing, lindy hop, rock'n'roll or rockabilly? Wouldn't it be nice if your students not only danced the part & dressed the part but also knew how to do their hair & makeup? The answer is yes yes yes!!!

We at Boogie Bop Dames can come to your dance school & run a workshop for your students so that they can look & feel like the whole package!

The choice is yours as to which sort of workshop we run, we can run a "Forties in a flash" or a full glamour workshop.

We generally try to limit the number of gals in any one workshop to 20 which allows us to give each & everyone of them our personal attention.

Its important to us that when the workshop is finished the girls look fabulous,so that means hair & makeup done& everyone happy with how they look!

Other dance schools have arranged this workshop for their student before one of their school social dances so that the girls get a chance to strut their stuff!

Please don't hesitate to contact us to discuss further what you would like to offer your students.
