Ballroom and Latin Dancing Society

Glasgow University Ballroom and Latin Dancing Society is open to all who wish to learn Ballroom and Latin dance. We teach 4 main dances which are rotated every week: Cha-Cha, Jive, Waltz and Quickstep. Our classes run typically on a Thursday evening. We also hold workshops throughout the year so you can experience other kinds of Ballroom and Latin dances, like Samba, Tango, Rumba and the Viennese Waltz.

For those of you who are interested, we regularly participate in competitions on the university circuit (this is optional). No previous dance experience is required to compete, so don't be scared; we always have good fun and you won’t be alone! We have open practice spaces and competition workshops during the year so get stuck in and challenge yourself!

We love having fun outside of classes and this year we have lots of socials planned! We have our annual end of year Showcase, regular pub nights, tea dances, movie nights and more!
