Welcome to the wonderful world of Modern Jive, and in particular on Thursdays when we join Ceroc Walsall for an evening of socializing, rhythm, music, and fun!

Finding The Group
We mingle and dance with other dancers, as well as with other group members. Attendee may find each other at the bar at the start.
Bringing a sycamore leaf
If anyone attending is new (or uncertain of finding others) then our simple suggestion is to bring a sycamore leaf. They're entirely disposable and it's actually fun looking out for those waving a leaf!
OR: Be a Group Welcomer
If you can arrive at the outset, you'll be appreciated if you volunteer to greet other GO members. Just ask. Up to 5 attendees can be co-hosts.
