Spice Girls Hen Party Dance Class Blackpool
A Spice Girls hen party dance class in Blackpool for the group that has already argued about who gets to be Scary. Nineties girl-power choreography, a chorus the whole room shouts rather than sings, and five personalities' worth of attitude shared between however many of you turn up — £185 plus the venue for ninety minutes, or £160 plus the venue for the hour.

All we really need is the weekend, roughly how many are coming and where everyone is staying. Who has claimed which Spice is useful too, since it decides how the middle section is cast.

Why the nineties still wins
Nobody has to be taught the chorus.
Ask a room of hens aged twenty-two to sixty-five to name a song they can all do and you will get a Spice Girls track within about four seconds. That head start is exactly why it sits so high on our hen party dance class list — the choreographer never has to sell the music, so every minute goes into the moves. In a town where a hen weekend usually means a long night out afterwards, an afternoon of shouting a chorus at your best mates is a very sensible warm-up. We're not connected to the group or their management; this is our own routine, put together in the spirit of it.
The choreography leans on the things people half-remember: the pointing, the peace signs, the shove-your-mate shoulder work and a lot of unison stepping that looks far better than it feels. It gets built in short blocks and looped, so the group is doing recognisable chunks within the first twenty minutes. Most parties then split the middle section by character — Sporty gets the athletic bit, Posh gets to stand still and look bored, and it descends from there. Platform trainers, leopard print and a Union Jack anything are all welcome and all your own: we don't supply costumes, props or shoes. If the group wants the whole decade rather than one band, the 90s class covers it, and for the sharper pop-video end there is the Britney class.
For the finish the bride goes front and centre for the last chorus while everyone else fans out behind her, arms up, volume at maximum. It works as a dance hen party for a group that spans two generations, and it is a proper hen party idea for anyone who has quietly had enough of afternoon tea. Groups who want to keep going after the weekend often end up in our weekly classes in the town centre, which is a nice problem for a bride to create.
What you're paying for
The flat fee, and what sits inside it.
Nearly every Spice Girls group takes the ninety minutes, mostly because the character section eats time and nobody wants it rushed. The only extra is hiring the room, priced up front — and there is no extra at all if we come to where you're staying. A Blackpool spice girls dance hen party that's priced once, for everyone — not a spice girls dance class hen party that grows with the guest list.

How the time usually goes
Ninety minutes of girl power.
It starts with a warm-up that is really just the first eight counts in disguise, which means the room is already dancing before anyone has decided to be self-conscious about it. The teacher then stacks short blocks — point, step, turn, shove — repeating each until the people at the back have it as well as the people at the front. Somewhere in the middle the character section arrives and the group casts itself, usually loudly.
The final stretch links everything into one run and puts the bride out front for the last chorus. Ninety minutes means you can perform the whole thing twice, once for yourselves and once for the cameras, and still finish with a group pose that fits everyone in. The precise split gets decided in the room on the day with your group — this is how it usually goes rather than a fixed running order.
What came back afterwards
Straight from the hens.
My auntie declared herself Scary Spice inside two minutes and honestly she was right. The Spice Girls class was the bit everyone talks about.
We had a fourteen-year-old cousin and a seventy-year-old nan in the same line and both of them knew every word.
Loud, daft and much better organised than we deserved. The teacher never once looked fed up with us.
Zig-a-zig-ah. That's the review.
Worth knowing
Spice Girls, sorted.
IDo we all get a Spice Girl to be?
If the group wants it, yes — the middle section can be cast so each character gets a few bars of her own. Bigger parties usually double up, which nobody minds, and anyone who would rather stay in the line simply stays in the line.
IIWhich Spice Girls songs will we dance to?
The obvious ones tend to carry it, but the final choice is made with your group and the bride's favourite goes in whatever it is. We don't promise a set list on any theme — the music gets settled beforehand and the routine is shaped in the room on the day.
IIIDo you provide the platform trainers and the outfits?
No, none of it. Costumes, props and shoes are all yours to bring, so the leopard print and the Union Jack are down to your group. Trainers you can actually move in beat platforms for the dancing, whatever the photographs suggest.
IVIs a Spice Girls hen do dance class alright for people who can't dance?
It is one of the friendliest themes we run for nervous groups. The moves are big and simple rather than technical, they are repeated a lot, and the singing tends to distract everyone from worrying about their feet.
VCan we book this as a hen party activity for a mixed-age group?
That is exactly who books it. The music covers everyone from teenagers to grandmothers, and the routine is low-impact enough that nobody gets left behind. Anyone who wants to sit a section out is welcome to and usually rejoins for the chorus.
VIWhere does the Spice Girls class actually happen?
Two options. Ours is a function room we hire in Blackpool town centre on Hornby Road (FY1 4RD), with the trams outside and the station a few minutes away, and the details land with your booking. Or we bring the class to your hotel, apartment or holiday let anywhere along the Promenade and out across the Fylde coast.
