Modern Jive Dance Lessons

A modern style of partner dancing.
If you thought modern jive lessons was something you\'d like to try, but thought it might be too hard, you couldn\'t find a partner, or you didn\'t know where to go, then we\'ve got the style for you.
Modern Jive lesson are a mix of Jive and Latin styles that incorporate styles and moves from many other forms of dance. Fun, easy to learn and commonly danced to the hottest tunes and latest hits. In a few short weeks of Modern Jive Dance Lessons, you can build a repertoire of moves that you can dance almost anywhere.
During World War 2 American soldiers found that they could not dance the Jitterbug and other US based dance styles with the local French and European women, a need was created for something new and light hearted. From there Modern Jive was born, where easy steps and technique created a new style that could be enjoyed by all. Since that time, Modern Jive has the versatility to express a range of emotions within the dance, which provides the freedom to express your own sense of style.
Modern Jive is a dance style practised around the world under many other names, including Le Bop®, Ceroc® and Le Step® here in Australia.
