Partner Dance Weekends with Rock Bottoms

Join us for an unforgettable dance experience packed with energy, learning and fun! Enjoy inspiring workshops led by top UK and international teachers, then dance the night away with evening sessions full of music and laughter. Each weekend celebrates a different style – from the smooth moves of Modern Jive to the vintage flair of Lindy Hop and the passion of Argentine Tango. Whether you’re polishing your skills or trying something new, these weekends promise great dancing, great company, and memories to last.


Tango with Blues

Held each January at TLH Derwent Hotel

This event offers Tango workshops at four levels from novice (those in their first year of regular Tango) right through to expert. There are also Blues workshops covering beginner and intermediate techniques. Workshops run all day Saturday and Sunday. In the evenings we have two Tango halls (Nuevo and Traditional) and a third venue offering Smooth Modern Jive followed by Blues late into the night. Saturday night features a Spectacular Teachers’ Cabaret. Current dates, prices and booking on the Rock Bottoms website. FIND OUT MORE


Tango (Level 2 & Up)

Held each January at TLH Victoria Hotel

This event offers Tango workshops at three levels from Level 2 (those with at least 18 months of Tango experience) right through to expert. If you are a beginner in Tango, this weekend is not for you – you’ll need our other Tango weekend instead. Workshops run all day Saturday and Sunday.

Lindy Hop with Balboa

Held each July at TLH Victoria Hotel

Experience a weekend filled with high-quality workshops and social dancing designed specifically for Lindy Hop and Balboa dancers.
