“I am glad I found dancing”
---
What can be better having fun and earning a little at the same time.
We will begin by filming lots of moves and sequences for promotion then begin classes.
The dance style is very modern Jive. Non-sexist so you will learn a little bit of leading too. It is expressive to the good music.
This is not dull old fashioned style stuff. Fun but taking it seriously where it counts.

July Salsa Freestyle Party - 14th July 2023
At the Plough Inn - Stoke Lacy HR7 4HG
14th July 2023
We had a little Rueda, line-ups and a couple of dance games.
The spin challenge proved a lot harder than expected. The lady needs to give the man a decent push. The man needs to be strong as an ox in the arm and light on their feet.
2023 - dancing again after Christmas break
Dance Freestyle at the Plough Inn. Thursday 12th January.
Classes
From all the years of being on the dance scene I have come to a firm conclusion. The only way to learn to dance properly is to have a few one-to-one lessons. Why spend lots of money and months struggling in a large group when you can fly in a matter of weeks with personalised tuition. We can identify your good points and work on the areas that will make your dancing a thousand times better.
I have danced with some 5000 women in ten countries and aided umpteen of them over the years. Some men take the view that they are there to make the ladies look good, but ask yourself if it would be twice as good if you both looked impressive?
One to One / Group
Some people come alone, others with their partner. We often pair people up with some else at the same stage as you. It is up to you.
Hopefully we will have the numbers to do a regular group class in early 2023. Join our list and we can let you know when it starts.
Simply send a whattsapp message/email or text.

Bordering on impossible, but fabulous fun and lets you attempt novel moves.
Dance to the beat - precisely on the beat. Not essential at all times but nice to have a go.
Great dance floor at the rear of the pub.
We have a jolly fine sound system.
Find us on the main A465 nr Bromyard.

How Max Jive came about
For a laugh we had a go at role reversal. I can’t follow, she can’t lead. It took as an age to get the basic moves right with her leading instead of me. It was comical. It would have been easier of at least one of was accustomed to the other role.
Then Laura gave me an idea ...
What if we could share the lead! Swap halfway though. All I need to do is test it.
And so we did. It made dancing far more fun. We danced twice as much as everyone else. We would also dance to longer tracks because lead sharing made that more doable. (You try a six minute song - you can run out of moves)
I realised something else too. To get her to dance, to really dance, I need to up my game. I need to show her what dancing is all about.
For that I need music, loud music. Music we both liked. I put the headphones on her head, pressed play on my phone and the magic began. She went loopy, dancing like a maniac. This is the Max Jive experience. It led her to say that she felt euphoric.
The right music, a beer or two and a great partner are the essential ingredients for a real good time. I want to share this joy with you. For me it has been one of the best things in my life. You can then go to a concert, a wedding, a disco, a nightclub, a dance hall, a country fair and dance like mad. Or take it steady. Or just use it as a way to get exercise that beats the gym. Whether it is with a stranger or your partner we can help you dance as one.
