About This RuPaul Hen Party Dance Class in Durham
Borrowing everything but the wig budget from the world of RuPaul's Drag Race, this is the hen class built entirely around confidence. A RuPaul hen party dance class in Durham teaches the drag runway walk, a lip-sync attitude and a set of fierce group struts that make even the shyest hen feel ten feet tall. There's no footwork to trip over and nothing to get 'wrong' — the whole point is owning the room, throwing shade at the camera and sashaying like the peninsula belongs to you.
It's one of the most joyful, least self-conscious themes we teach, and it suits absolutely everyone — we drill the walk, the pose and the attitude until the whole group commits together and the nerves evaporate. Durham's a warm, mixed-crowd night out to carry it into afterwards, from the pubs around the cobbled Market Place to the riverside bars over at Walkergate, all a short, hilly walk from wherever we run the class. Dress it up as much as you like; camp is the whole assignment.
Pricing is flat and drama-free: £140 for the hour, £165 for ninety minutes, the same from six hens to thirty, with only a studio we book for you or a single £10 bottle of fizz able to add to it. Rather stay in and glam up at a city-centre apartment or a place out in the county? We'll bring the runway to you, sound and all, anywhere across Durham City and County Durham. You supply the sequins; we supply the swagger.

What Our Hens Say
RuPaul hen parties we have taught across Durham.
"I've never felt less able to dance and more able to strut. By the end our whole group was working the runway like we'd been doing it for years."
— Verity Croxdale ★★★★★"The bride is the shyest of all of us, and watching her headline the runway, owning it completely, genuinely got a few of us welling up. Best thing we could have picked."
— Suki Wingate ★★★★★"No steps to panic about, just attitude — which suited a group who can't dance but can absolutely pose. We sashayed straight out into the Market Place afterwards."
— Delphine Trimdon ★★★★★"It was camp, kind and hilarious in equal measure. Our instructor got even the reluctant ones throwing shade at the camera by the end."
— Roisin Meadowfield ★★★★★RuPaul Hen Party FAQ
Everything you need to know about our RuPaul hen party dance class in Durham.
Is this an actual drag show or a dance class? +
It's a dance class inspired by drag, not a performance you watch — you're the ones on the runway. We teach the walk, the poses and the lip-sync attitude made famous by RuPaul's Drag Race, all scaled for complete beginners. There's no drag act booked and no performer supplied; the whole point is that your group becomes the show.
How much is a RuPaul hen party in Durham? +
It's a group charge, never a price per head — £140 for the hour, £165 for ninety minutes, holding firm whether six hens come or thirty. The only extras are a studio, if you ask us to sort one, and at most a single £10 bottle of fizz for the table; run it at your own place and there's nothing more to pay.
None of us can dance — does that matter? +
Not in the slightest — this is the theme for people who insist they can't dance. There's no real footwork; it's all walk, pose and attitude, which anyone can pick up. We build the confidence bit by bit until the whole group is committing together, and the ones who arrive most nervous almost always end up strutting the hardest.
Should we dress up, and do you bring costumes? +
Dress up as much as you fancy — sequins, feathers, heels, the lot — because the glam only lifts it. Sorting the outfits is on your group rather than us, though, so plan those ahead. If you'd rather keep it low-key and just bring the attitude, that works too; the walk carries it either way.
Where can we take the night afterwards? +
Durham's an easy, friendly night out to spill into. The pubs around the cobbled Market Place and the riverside bars over at Walkergate are all a short walk apart, though it's a hilly, cobbled one, so pack shoes you can manage. We're happy to point you toward the most welcoming spots when you book.
Where does the class happen? +
Either in a studio we arrange near the centre or the river, or wherever you're based — an apartment, a hotel room, a hall or a house out in the county. We bring the full sound system and set up in whatever space there is, so a living room works as well as a booked room. Just say which you'd prefer.
