What are we all about?

The Ballroom and Latin American Dancing Society, otherwise known as BALADS, caters for all of your dancing needs; whether it be casual social dancing or giving in to your competitive side to dance against many other universities. We have social classes for those looking to learn a few new moves and meet new people, and competition classes for those of you who want to have fun competing all over the country!

No experience is required, so even if you think you have two left feet, come along and we’ll prove you can dance!

Guest Instructors

We also have guest instructors including:

  • Jive Nation, who teach modern jive
  • Salsa instructors
  • Argentine Tango

Members’ Comments

“I'm glad my house mate dragged me to BALADS in the first week of term, it's a great way to meet people and an awesome weekly night out.”

“BALADS was the best way of both chilling out and being actively social in my final year. Less commitment than a sports club and so much fun!”

“Lots of opportunities to perform and you can enjoy dancing with a different partner each night!”

“The competition classes are a brilliant addition to the social classes because you get to focus on just a few dances and learn how to dance them well. The competitions themselves are great fun, spending a day with the rest of the team, getting to dress up and have fun competing!”

“Highlight of the year: our BALADS weekend away at a top dance hotel resort in Bournemouth, dancing with Strictly's Camilla & Ian!”

“Single? Balads is like speed-dating without the awkward silences!”
