Thank Friday It's Freestyle (TFIF) - 1st May 2026 8.30pm-1.00am. Morris with Co-DJ Pete Shilitto 🙂
TFIF is designed to be different! Many have said it is 'unique' and that there is 'nothing else like it!'.
We have been running over 16 years and attract dancers in the Modern Jive/Modern Blues/'Expressive' styles (and increasingly WCS and Alt Tango too), who enjoy the challenge of dancing to more complex tracks in a wide range of musical genres (rock, lyrical, classical, acoustic, film themes, a bit of Hip-hop, etc etc), with no regular 'thump thump' beat.
The majority of tracks during an evening are discovered and played fresh each month, so dancers never get 'same old, same old'. That's part of the attraction.
The people who enjoy TFIF (and return month after month, often travelling long distances!), love the different approach to the music, and its variety. They engage their musicality rather than moves in response, and enter into great connection with their dance partners. The experience can be quite emotional, and can lead to those special 'Wow!' moments on the dance floor.
The venue is HUGE (arguably one of the biggest single room dance areas in the UK), with great, smooth floors. We use a professional quality sound system which brings out the best of all the layers in the music, and high quality, subdued mood lighting (no rapid flashing).
We look forward to seeing you! :-)
Address: The Oxford Academy, Sandy Lane West, Littlemore, Oxford OX4 6JZ.
