RETRO dance lovers will twirl and tap at lessons in Abingdon.

Age UK's exercise service Generation Games will begin modern jive classes in the town, in a bid to boost active lifestyles.

The charity said the classes will be 'tremendous fun' and said the dance it easier and slower than similar styles including the jitterbug.

They will run every Friday from 10-11am at the Conservative Club in Ock Street, from November 4, at a cost of £4.
