Latin Vibes Swindon : News Updates November 2025

 


In this bulletin: Thank yous, Venue suggestions / parking, and Etiquette.

Thank yous

I want to thank all our improver and intermediate students for being so kind and welcoming to our beginner students.  And particularly for attending the beginner class to ensure that brand new beginners have folk to practice with.  We try to make these classes as interesting as possible while appealing to new students, but any suggestions are always welcome (contact us here).

Venue suggestions / parking

 A couple of people have asked if we could find a venue with better parking options.  It's a bit of a squeeze at Rodbourne Road, although it's been reported that there is free on-street parking nearby.  If you have any parking tips we can share with the group, or if you have any venue ideas, please contact us here.

Finally, Etiquette

Our etiquette page here https://www.latin.dance/p/etiquette.html is a short read, please make yourself aware of it. 

A couple of DON'Ts:

Don't teach unless you are on the teaching team.  You could be misleading someone or making them feel bad about how they have led or followed a move.  If you would like to help someone, ask the teaching team for the best advice.

Don't 'test' your partner with tricky moves.  First get a feel for their level and work your way up.

A couple of DOs:

Bring a fresh clean shirt, deodorant and a change of shirt just in case. 

Please smile when you rotate partner in class.  You don't know what your fellow students are going through, and a smile can really improve their day.
