About This 80s Hen Party Dance Class in Nottingham
Wind the clock back to the most gloriously over-the-top decade pop ever produced and treat the bride and her crew to an 80s hen party dance class in Nottingham that practically hums with neon. Your choreographer pieces together a punchy, camera-ready routine from the tracks that ruled the era — the swagger of Madonna's Like a Virgin and Material Girl, a fist-in-the-air burst of Wham!, that playful Cyndi Lauper grin and a Whitney belter to bring it home. The eight-counts arrive in bite-sized pieces and settle at a pace the whole group can follow, so even the friends who insist they cannot dance walk out looking like they strolled straight off a music-video set.
Chasing an 80s hen do in Nottingham with genuine moves rather than a phone playlist and a half-hearted bop? We teach the real choreography — the planted power stance, the grapevine, that high-kicking pop-aerobics burn the decade lived for — at one of the two city-centre studios we run on Victoria Street and Gedling Street, a couple of minutes from the Lace Market and the Old Market Square, or a choreographer heads out to whichever apartment, hotel or function room your group has booked. Hens travelling in from Beeston, West Bridgford, Long Eaton, Derby and Mansfield keep landing on this theme because the side ponytails, scrunchies and back-combed swagger are exactly what make the finished clip worth replaying.
There is no need for a single lesson among the lot of you — the whole point is to laugh your way into a routine you can genuinely pull off. Working a few counts at a time, your choreographer locks each chunk in before moving on, until the crew has a number worthy of the wedding-speech reel. The instant that last beat lands, the city takes over: cocktails in Hockley, a wander past the Castle or a victory strut beneath the Left Lion with the neon buzz still ringing in your ears. That retro high has a habit of staying switched on long after you leave the floor. Fancy a hand pinning down the theme the bride will love most? Send us a message or browse every hen party theme.

What Our Hens Say
A few words from hen crews who have thrown 80s shapes with us across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire.
"Fifteen of us squeezed into neon leg warmers for a Material Girl number and it was glorious chaos. Our choreographer unpicked every step so gently that even the aunties who swore they couldn't dance were strutting before the hour was out. We were still throwing shapes on the walk back through Hockley."
— Leanne H. ★★★★★"We asked for the cheesiest 80s the choreographer could throw at us and they delivered. The Wham! stretch had everyone beaming and the pop-aerobics burst left us gasping between giggles. Back-combed hair, side ponytails, the lot — the footage is pure gold."
— Carys P. ★★★★★"The bride lives for Cyndi Lauper, so we kept the whole theme under wraps until we walked into the Victoria Street studio. She actually shrieked when Girls Just Want to Have Fun kicked in. Eleven of us with not a scrap of rhythm, yet it looked seriously slick by the last run — and we carried the moves out past the Left Lion."
— Demi R. ★★★★★"Easily the best bit of the whole weekend. We nailed a Whitney number on the Gedling Street floor and the choreographer's energy never once dipped, even with half the group travelling in from Beeston and Long Eaton. Two more brides have already booked off the back of our video — get it sorted."

The things Nottingham hen organisers usually want nailed down before an 80s session goes in the diary.
Which 80s anthems make it into the hen routine in Nottingham? +
One routine, a whole stack of era-defining bangers — expect Madonna's Like a Virgin and Material Girl, a chunk of Wham!, some Cyndi Lauper sparkle, a big Whitney moment and a lung-busting pop-aerobics close. We thread several tracks together so the playlist romps through the whole decade, and if the bride has tunes she'd hate to miss, name them at the booking stage.
Does anyone in the group need dancing experience already? +
Honestly, no. Complete newcomers are the people this class is built around. Each move gets demonstrated solo and layered in slowly, with loads of repeats so it sticks. Throw on a side ponytail, find your feet on a grapevine, and the rest falls into place far quicker than you would expect.
How many hens can take part in the 80s class? +
Headcount is wide open — there is no floor and no ceiling, so rock up with seven or thirty-seven. Larger groups get a second choreographer brought into the room so no one drifts off the pace at the back, and everyone dances the same neon number rather than a few hens watching from the sidelines.
Where in Nottingham does the 80s hen class take place? +
Loads of groups dance at one of our city-centre studios — 21 Victoria Street, NG1 2EW, or Gedling Street, NG1 1DB, both a couple of minutes from the Lace Market and the Old Market Square. Rather not move the party? Your choreographer will pack the leg warmers into a kit bag and run the whole class at your apartment, hotel or function room, travelling right across Nottinghamshire to Beeston, West Bridgford, Long Eaton and beyond.
Pricing and timings — what are the 80s class options? +
Pick from an hour at a flat £140 or ninety minutes at £165 — each covers everyone in the room instead of a per-person charge. Stretching to the longer slot adds another anthem, more time to sharpen the big-hair finale and an easygoing filmed take, which is why the bulk of 80s hens lean that way.
How much should we dress up for the 80s class? +
Dial the retro up as far as you like — neon leg warmers, scrunchies, giant sunglasses and back-combed hair all pile on the fun, and honestly we have seen every variation going. A pair of trainers or flats keeps you nimble through the choreography, while full 80s fancy dress is entirely your shout. Keep comfort at the top of the list and the glitter can pile up behind it.
