Fame Hen Party Dance Class

Fame Choreographer: Greta

The Fame hen party was one of the first parties we ever created so it's really close to my heart. I love the music from the movie and I love the lycra 80's dancer outfits & I love the dancing and that's what our Fame hen party is all about.

I like to pretend that the hens are the kids from Fame and they have to go to all the different dance classes at the 'New York school of Performing Arts'. We kick off with a a light hearted Ballet class which is hilarious - plies and all. It brings back all those memories of childhood ballet classes - good toes, naughty toes! We then move on to Jazz and have everyone loing lots of Jazz hands and leaping around the room. It always looks great when the hens are in 80's fancy dress and we make sure we take lots of photos at this point. Then it's 'break time' & we reanact the famous 'dancing on the sidewalk' scene from Fame. Expect some comedy retro breakdancing - it's totally rad! I love having little snippets of the different dance styles because it keeps the party moving & makes it more fun. No one wants to spend 2 hours on the same dance so this way we make sure the party doesn't drag. The sections build on each other and there's always something new & exciting to do next.

Then, for the big main routine, a fantastic 80's dance inspired show stopping performance to 'Fame!'. Perfect for the end of term showcase! Everyone knows the song so it makes it much easier to dance to. We use all the moves covered in the first half of the party and put them together to make up the dance. That way, it's not lots of new moves and everyone can pick it up easily & have fun dancing.

And for the grand finale, a spectacular lift on the bride, making her the star of the show! It wouldn't be Fame without a show stopping lift and it's such a great end to the party and a perfect photo opportunity. It's a really nice way to make the bride feel special.
