FORMER national jive dance champion Marco Grove is to launch a regular Thursday evening club called The Jive Bar, based in The Hobby Horse public house, Minehead.Marco, who moved to West Somerset two years ago, gave a demonstration of the country’s fastest-growing partner dance during the recent West Somerset Business Fair.
Together with a partner who had received just eight hours’ tuition, he presented a choreographed piece of work which fused many different dance styles into one.
The Jive Bar opens on March 15 and is designed for people who have never danced before, using all styles of music from 40s swing to the latest chart hits.
Marco, who previously taught jive in the Midlands, said: “It is easy to learn and it is a really good social evening out.
“The whole thing about the dance is about creating a really good feeling within people so they can achieve things and be inspired and build confidence.”
