About This Dirty Dancing Hen Party Dance Class in Bath
There is a reason this film refuses to leave the group chat: the mambo, the log-balancing practice, the crawl across the floor, and of course the lift. A Dirty Dancing hen party dance class in Bath hands the bride-to-be all of it, choreographed properly and taught to people who have never partnered a step in their lives. Picture your group rehearsing by a riverside flat near Pulteney Bridge, hips loosening one count at a time.
Your choreographer starts where the film starts — that shy, arms-length hesitation — and coaxes the whole room past it into the loose-hipped Kellerman's mambo. We work the famous set pieces: the practising-in-the-mirror shimmy, the playful push-and-pull hold, and, for any group that wants it, a safe and properly spotted version of the lift. Nobody is thrown into anything; every hold is earned step by step and laughed through together.
Because we bring the class to you, the setting is yours to choose — a Widcombe hen-house across the river from Bath Spa station, a hotel suite in the city centre, or a holiday let out toward Bathampton. We supply the music and the coaching; you supply the group and the nerve. And if the lift feels like a bridge too far on the day, we simply keep it grounded and no less glorious.

What Our Hens Say
Dirty Dancing hen parties we have taught across Bath.
"We did the lift! Actually did it! Our choreographer spotted every attempt so it never felt scary, and the bride's face when she went for it is now framed in her hallway."
— Saskia Trevelyan ★★★★★"Came to our riverside Airbnb near Widcombe and turned a room full of nervous mums into a proper mambo line. The mirror shimmy was my mother-in-law's finest hour."
— Nuala Kilbride ★★★★★"I cannot dance to save my life but they broke every hold down so slowly that even I looked passable. Kept it grounded and it still felt incredibly romantic."
— Odette Marchetti ★★★★★"Best decision of the whole hen weekend. We learned the mambo, tried the lift, then floated back over Pulteney Bridge feeling like film stars. Worth every penny."
— Bryony Larcombe ★★★★★Dirty Dancing Hen Party FAQ
Everything you need to know about our Dirty Dancing hen party dance class in Bath.
Do we actually have to do the lift? +
Never. The lift is entirely optional and always fully spotted by your choreographer. Plenty of groups keep the routine grounded and it looks just as good — the mambo and the set-piece holds carry the whole thing on their own.
Is this suitable for total beginners? +
Completely. The film's own story is about someone learning from scratch, so the class leans into that. Every partnered hold is taught in slow stages, and you will not be expected to arrive knowing anything.
Where does the class take place in Bath? +
Wherever you are staying. We come to your Airbnb, hotel suite or holiday let — many groups pick a riverside spot near Widcombe or the city centre. You just need a clear floor about the size of a large living room.
What does it cost and how long is it? +
The session lasts 90 minutes and costs £140 for the group, or £165 for the larger package. Bubbly can be added at a flat £10 if you would like to celebrate with a glass in hand.
How big can the group be? +
Anywhere from eight to twenty works well. For partnered sections we pair hens up and rotate, so odd numbers are never a problem and nobody sits out.
What should we wear? +
Something you can move and stretch in, plus trainers or bare feet. A few groups nod to the film with denim and floaty tops, but comfort always beats costume when there is a lift to learn.
