About This Charleston Hen Party Dance Class in Telford
The Charleston is the roaring twenties in dance form — flicking heels, swivelling knees, waving hands and a cheeky flapper grin — and a Charleston dance hen party Telford session brings the whole jazz age to your group for an hour. It is silly, fast and gloriously vintage, the moves designed to raise a laugh, and it needs no experience at all. Kick, swivel, twist: within minutes the whole room looks like it stepped out of a 1920s speakeasy.
There is a fitting backdrop to borrow just down the road: the cast-iron heritage of the Ironbridge Gorge and the recreated period streets at Blists Hill, a few miles south of the town, give Telford a genuine vintage, industrial glamour that suits a flapper theme down to the ground — inspiration only, with the dancing kept firmly at your own venue. Your instructor comes to a booked room near Southwater, a Telford Central hotel suite, or the house your group has taken near Wellington, Oakengates or Ironbridge, and teaches the kicks, swivels and hand-waves in slow, giggly layers.
A Charleston dance hen do Telford is one flat price, spelled out before you book — £140 for the hour or £165 for ninety minutes — for the whole group rather than per head, so a few extra flappers on the day add nothing to the bill. Chilled bubbly is an optional £10 for the group, ideal for a twenties-style toast before a Shropshire night out.

What Our Hens Say
Charleston hen parties we have taught across Telford.
"We went full twenties, feathers and all, and she matched the energy completely. Ten of us kicking and swivelling round a hotel room near Southwater, crying with laughter. The bride was every inch the flapper queen."
— Leonie Pardoe ★★★★★"So much more fun than I expected. My auntie went from refusing to join in to leading the front row of kicks. He kept it silly and simple and the whole group looked brilliant."
— Robyn Cadman ★★★★★"One flat price, came to our place near Ironbridge, brought all the jazz-age sparkle. Two late arrivals and no extra charge. Vintage, giggly and perfect for our themed weekend."
— Nia Preece ★★★★★"Feathers on, bubbly poured, Charleston learned — then out into Shropshire for the night. Every single hen said it was the highlight. Would do it again in a heartbeat."
— Della Groucutt ★★★★★Charleston Hen Party FAQ
Everything you need to know about our Charleston hen party dance class in Telford.
Do we need a partner or any experience? +
Neither needed. The routine is a group Charleston rather than couples work, and every kick and swivel starts from zero. The instructor breaks the twenties moves right down and sets the speed by the least confident hen, so the one convinced her legs will not swivel is usually the flapper stealing the final run.
Where in Telford does the class happen? +
At your venue. We come to a hired room near Southwater or Telford Central, a hotel function suite, or an Airbnb living room, and we travel out to Wellington, Oakengates, Ironbridge and across Shropshire. Give us the postcode when you book and the instructor arrives with the swing playlist and everything else.
How does the pricing work? +
One flat figure for the whole group — £140 for an hour or £165 for ninety minutes — rather than a charge per person. However many flappers turn up, the total stays the same, so late arrivals never change the bill. Chilled bubbly is an optional £10 for the group for a toast at the end.
What should everyone wear? +
Anything you can kick and swivel in — a dropped-waist dress or a fringed number is brilliant for the photos, but leggings and a loose top work just as well. Flat shoes or a low heel are best for the fast footwork. Feathers, headbands and pearls are entirely encouraged if the group fancies going full twenties.
How long is it and can we add bubbly? +
You choose an hour or ninety minutes, both with time for a warm-up, the routine and a filmed final run. Ninety minutes suits groups who want to really lean into the theme. Bubbly is an optional £10 for the group, poured once the last kick is done.
Can we go all-out with a 1920s theme? +
Absolutely, and most groups do. Feather headbands, fringed dresses and long pearls turn the hour into a proper Gatsby party, and the routine is built to show off the look. Telford's own vintage backdrop — the Ironbridge Gorge's cast-iron heritage and the period streets at Blists Hill nearby — makes a flapper theme feel right at home, though the dancing stays at your venue.
