Welcome to Jitterbugs
Looking for something different and fun?
Come and enjoy a night out with friends learning to swing dance. It’s a great way to meet people and get fit in a relaxed, friendly environment.
At Jitterbugs we teach the dances from the swing dance era including lindy hop, balboa, blues, charleston and even burlesque, as well as all the strolls of the swingtime craze. We love these dances and you’ll love them too. Our classes are based in the central Auckland area and well serviced by public transport.
We’re so sure you’ll love it, we’ll give you your first class FREE! This can be taken only during week 1 and week 2 of our block courses. Give it a go, with friends or on your own – everyone’s welcome!
Michelle Stoupe, Founder
