Classes
We offer open classes catering towards all levels of dancers, from beginner foundations to advanced choreography! Learn a variety of street styles taught by our team of choreographers, such as commercial, house, popping, tutting, femme, and more - and of course, hip hop! We also bring in professional choreographers externally, from top UK dance studios, to come teach our members!
Please see our Instagram for class details and who is teaching each week!
Classes are £3 for members and £5 for non-members.
Performances
EQHO’s main performance event is Shockwave, our flagship showcase held in Term 2. It’s a high-energy, unforgettable night that brings the entire EQHO family together to perform and create lasting memories. Shockwave also welcomes other dance societies from the University to share the stage, making it a vibrant celebration of diverse dance styles and talent across campus.
In addition to Shockwave, we host smaller showcases at the end of each term, where everyone is encouraged to take part — whether by dancing or simply watching and cheering. These events are a fun, low-pressure way to celebrate the term’s progress through freestyle sessions, class choreographies, and community sharing.
Throughout the year, we also collaborate with other performing arts groups, such as Classical Modern Dance, offering even more chances for our members to explore performance and express themselves on stage.
Competitions
EQHO’s two competition teams have historically been recognised for their high standard. Both teams, levels intermediate and advanced, are entered into some of the biggest national university dance competitions every year. Over the last few years the competition teams have had some incredible achievements, such as winning 2nd at GHGH 2025, 2nd at Sheffield University Dance Competition 2026, and 3rd Team Spirit at GHGH 2026. The competition teams are a fantastic way to push your dancing further whilst meeting great people and having fun.
Socials
We bond outside of class through a variety of drinking and sober socials. From themed parties and pub crawls to musical game nights like Just Dance, there’s something for everyone! We also host seasonal events like Christmas and Easter dinners, which are a great chance to relax and connect.
Our socials are open to everyone, including non-dancers, so come along for a good time and make some great memories! Whether you're a regular on nights out or prefer chill, wholesome vibes, there’s something for you. Highlights of our year include our Annual Ball in Term 3 and Society Tour in Term 2 — two unforgettable events that bring the whole group together.
