About This Charleston Hen Party Dance Class in London
London hides its best bars behind unmarked doors these days, and the Charleston is the dance those speakeasies were built for. A Charleston dance hen party London flappers would approve of covers the kicks, the crossed-hand knee wobble and that joyous scattergun footwork, broken down by a patient choreographer until the whole group is swinging like the band just struck up in 1926.
Soundtrack-wise you get the real 1920s jazz plus modern electro-swing that keeps the tempo friendly while everyone learns. Headbands and pearls are encouraged but never compulsory. Book studio space in Zone 1 or 2 — Mayfair and Soho hide several Prohibition-style bars for afterwards — or the instructor delivers the jazz age straight to your door, any hotel, Airbnb or function room inside the M25.
Pricing is flapper-simple: £140 an hour, £165 for the extended ninety, one rate however many hens join the line-up, with studio hire the only optional extra. The routine films beautifully — all kicks and grins — and slots neatly into a Gatsby-themed evening. Consider the Charleston dance hen do London option officially found; the enquiry form below does the rest.

What Our Hens Say
Charleston hen parties we have taught across London.
"Learned the kicks in a Soho studio then spent the evening in a speakeasy in full flapper dress. The two bookings were made for each other. Everyone still talks about it."
— Isla H. ★★★★★"She brought the twenties to our Battersea Airbnb — pearls, kicks, the knee-cross trick, all of it. My gran said it was the best party she had been to since her own wedding."
— Rachel W. ★★★★★"The crossed-hands knee thing finally makes sense! Faster and funnier than any of us expected."
— Nina T. ★★★★★"Gatsby hen do sorted in one booking. Absolute joy."

Everything you need to know about our Charleston hen party dance class in London.
What music will we dance to at the Charleston hen party in London? +
Authentic 1920s jazz for flavour and modern electro-swing for learnable tempos — think Parov Stelar next to the original Charleston tunes. The final mix is shaped around your group.
Is the Charleston too fast for beginners? +
The full-speed version is — which is why we do not start there. Steps are learned at a friendly tempo and accelerated only as the group earns it, so the finale feels fast without ever being frantic.
How much does a Charleston hen party in London cost? +
The whole party dances for one flat rate — £140 for the hour and £165 for the full ninety — with studio hire the only optional add-on. Per head, it is usually the cheapest item on the weekend itinerary.
Can you bring the class to our accommodation? +
Yes — the jazz age reaches every corner of the M25. Hotels, Airbnbs and hen-house living rooms are all fair game; you just need enough floor for the kicks. Central studios are available otherwise.
How many flappers can join? +
Five to thirty with one instructor, more with two. The Charleston line-up formation means everyone stays visible in the video, so there is no hiding at the edges.
Could we perform it at the wedding? +
Groups love doing exactly this — a vintage number suits receptions perfectly. Mention it to your choreographer and the number is structured for a quick refresher before the big day.
