*You don’t need a partner to book.
However, as spaces for each role are limited, it simply helps to book as role balanced couple.
After registering, you’ll be placed on the waitlist while we match roles.

"Hi, my name is Vicky and I'll be your guide, friendly face and cheerleader during the event. I can't wait to meet you!"
Vicky
Created with New Dancers in Mind
​
This Newcomer Track was developed in collaboration with Vicky V, creator of the well known 'Zero to Hero'. As Vicky continues to reimagine and evolve her work, we are pleased to bring some of her experience supporting brand new dancers together with the welcoming Evolve Swing community spirit built by your UK Champs Event Directors, Aggie and Kevin Town.
​
The result is a structured, supportive introduction to WCS designed to help new dancers feel comfortable at their first UK WCS Championships event, understand how events work, and start enjoying the social dance floor.
