Essie-Jo and Stokie began running Stokie's with the intention of creating dance events of the
highest quality that were, friendly, inclusive and of course with stunning music. They teach Tango and Blues dancing as private one-to-ones, weekly classes, and at some of the UK's largest mixed dance weekenders. We can also work with you to create a 'first dance' for your wedding. Every month they host Tango, and Blues events. They also arrange and run Stokie's three popular annual dance weekenders. With decades of dance experience between them, you really are in safe hands with Stokie's events and classes. |

vanished to as DJs Stokie and DJ Roachie play hours of the finest
tunes to seduce your ears and make your feet beg you to dance. If
a laid back atmosphere, a unique blend of music, friendly dancers and a
late finish sounds like your type of a night, then have we got a treat
for you.
We have a sprung maple dance floor, free parking, friendly dancers from all over the UK, a laid-back, relaxed, party atmosphere that is like no other. There is no licensed bar, but a small selection of soft drinks, fresh tea and coffee is on sale through the night, and you are most welcome to bring your own drinks if you wish.
