About This Strictly Hen Party Dance Class in Durham
A Strictly hen party is ballroom-and-Latin glamour distilled into an hour — the cha-cha hips, a sweeping waltz frame and a big finish pose, all sequins and sparkle. The choreographer picks a style to suit the group, teaches a partnered or grouped routine depending on numbers, and polishes it until a room of beginners is gliding like they've been handed a glitterball.
It suits Durham's sense of occasion. This is a city of regal, Prince-Bishops grandeur and proper theatre nights at the Gala, so a bit of ballroom pomp feels right at home here. We bring the elegance without any of the seriousness — think laughing through the count of a cha-cha rather than a stern head-judge marking your frame — and the bride gets the showcase moment.
The price is flat, £140 for the hour or £165 for ninety minutes for the whole group rather than per head, with a £10 bottle of fizz on offer to raise once the final pose lands. Book a central studio a short walk from Market Place, or have us bring the ballroom to your hotel or Airbnb anywhere across Durham City and the county — sequins encouraged, sensible shoes for the cobbles between venues.

What Our Hens Say
Strictly hen parties we have taught across Durham.
"All the sequins and sparkle with none of the seriousness. The choreographer had us gliding through a cha-cha in a studio near the centre within the hour."
— Immy Waistell ★★★★★"Booked the come-to-you option for our place near Elvet and it felt genuinely glamorous. The bride's final pose got a proper cheer."
— Robyn Dinsdale ★★★★★"None of us had done ballroom and it didn't matter a bit. Sequins on, fizz open, the whole thing was a giggle."
— Freya Errington ★★★★★"Wanted glamour with a sense of occasion and that's exactly what we got. Felt like our own little Saturday-night showcase."
— Paloma Sowerby ★★★★★Strictly Hen Party FAQ
Everything you need to know about our Strictly hen party dance class in Durham.
Which dances will we learn? +
A style chosen to suit your group — the cha-cha and jive on the Latin side, or a waltz and quickstep for ballroom. Tell us a favourite and the choreographer builds the routine around it, finishing on a big showcase pose for the cameras.
Do we need partners? +
Not necessarily. We can teach it partnered if your numbers work, or as a grouped routine so nobody's left out — plenty of hen groups prefer everyone dancing together. Either way it's shaped so complete beginners keep up.
Where does it take place? +
A central studio a short walk from Market Place, or your own hotel or Airbnb anywhere across Durham City and the county — we travel and bring the speaker. A bit of clear floor and a plug is all the room needs.
How much is it? +
A flat £140 for the hour or £165 for ninety minutes, for the whole group rather than per person, with an optional £10 bottle of fizz. The figure is set before the day, so there are no extras to settle later.
We've never danced ballroom — will we cope? +
Easily. The basics are broken down slowly and there's no head-judge marking anyone's frame — it's glamour and laughing, not a competition. Most groups are gliding through the routine well before the hour's up.
What should we wear? +
Sequins and something you can twirl in are very much encouraged. Flat or low shoes are wisest, both for the dancing and for Durham's cobbles and hills between venues — save the showstopper heels for the photos.
