Swing Dancing in the UK

[Ecclesiastes3_4]

I'm heading to Hertford College for 2 weeks this summer with a study abroad program at my school. I know there are a few swing dancers in our group. Can any of you across the pond recommend some good swing dance places about Oxford? Or any other kinds of dancing, but swing seems to be the favorite.

American style of " swing " is very rare in the UK ( I teach it in my classes ) but there are some WCS dancers around.. dont be fooled by the Mod. Jive dances.. not what you might think.

salsa is big.. everywhere
