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 King's Cross tube.
🗓️ We offer various different weekly drop-in classes for all levels, as well as multi-week block courses for Absolute Beginners through to Improvers. Some classes are dedicated to light or heavy shoe, and some offer a mix. Check the description for more info.
