Book a Class - Jig and a Swig

Hello! 👋

Jig and Swig is a social Irish dance class founded by former All-Ireland champion and Riverdance cast member Jessie Leach. We're all about giving things a go, making new friends and getting in some cardio! Classes are held within a 5 min walk of either Waterloo, Southwark, Oval, Highgate or Kentish Town tube.

🗓️ We offer 9 different weekly drop-in classes for all levels, as well as multi-week block courses for Beginners, Improvers and Advanced. Some classes are dedicated to light or heavy shoe, and some offer a mix. Check the description for more info.

🕺Take a read of the class descriptions below to see which class suits you best. Each description includes videos of the choreography taught in each class to give you a taste of what to expect. If you have any questions send us a message by email or Instagram @jigandaswig.

👯‍♂️ When you book a class you have the option to share your dance experience, any accessibility needs and preferred pronouns.

🤗 Check your confirmation message and email for welcome videos and information on venues, what to bring and how to make the most of your time at Jig and a Swig!

🎟️ If you're interested in coming more regularly, we recommend purchasing a class-pass for greater flexibility and savings. For all the info on pass options, pricing, booking conditions and how to transfer a class, take a read here: https://jigandaswig.co.uk/latest-news/2026-new-year-schedule

📋 If a class is fully booked, you can join the waitlist. When a space becomes available you'll be sent an email and will have 1 hour to book your spot!

🎫 Every weekly class can be swapped/transferred to a different date once, or cancelled and returned to your pass as credit, if done before 5pm the day before your class.

🎫 Refunds are only available for multi-week courses if emailed 72 hours ahead of the first session. No refunds or transfers are available for one-off workshops or taster sessions.

Thanks so much for being part of Jig and a Swig and we can't wait to dance with you soon! ☘️
