History of Stompin' at the 100 Club
Stompin’ first opened its doors in 1987 at the iconic 100 Club on Oxford Street. It was the UK's first and favourite weekly Swing dance club, led by Simon Selmon. Stompin' introduced a frequently copied formula of beginner and intermediate Swing dance classes followed by the UK's top Swing ad jump jive bands & DJs playing the most danceable music of the 1930s, 40s & 50s through to the music of today's modern swing bands.
Today, SwingdanceUK host the legendary Stompin’ special events three or four times a year, giving dancers old and new the chance to be part of the magic at the 100 Club. These events celebrate the best of swing, Lindy Hop and jump jive, keeping the spirit of Stompin’ alive and vibrant for every generation of dancers.
Here's what Emma said about her visit to Stompin' 27.10.25: "It was such a memorable evening. Great music, atmosphere, and venue. Also, to dance somewhere that has history with the Lindy Hop is always special. Thank you!!"
