☆☆☆ Saturday Classes ☆☆☆

☆ Join our Shaggin` boat trip through the harbour! Dance on a historic barge or simply relax, enjoy the view and the fresh breeze. Drinks and snacks are available on board. We’ll be on board from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.☆ Location: Hamburg Harbour Barkassenbetrieb Bülow (5 minutes from our venue – the venue has showers, just in case! 😉). Please note: This activity is booked separately and the Half Pass runs in parallel and unfortunately can’t join. Our historic barge is super cute but not as big as cruise ships – so spots are limited☆

☆☆☆ Shag Ahoi! Party ☆☆☆

☆ Shag Ahoi! Party Motto of 2026: We’re transforming the dance floor into the dazzling world of 🎪 CIRQUE DU SHAG 🎪 Dress up if you like – anything circus‑inspired is warmly welcome: circus director, acrobat, clown, fortune teller, strongman, magician, juggler, tightrope walker, animal tamer, … or – if you do not like costumes – simply a happy member of the audience 😉! (Logo: Verena Braun Illustration)

☆ Best costume price: Show us your most creative circus look! ☆ Fun Shag`n Jill with great workshop prices ☆ Location: Tanzschule Edvardsson (Warehouse studios) ☆  Free Taster Class at 19:30 No Collegiate Shag experience required (Door open at 19:15) ☆ Party starts at 20:30 ☆ Music: Our groovy live band “Toolbox Sisters” will keep the dance floor buzzing, and between the sets you’ll enjoy the finest swing music from our Hamburg legendary double DJ team Mrs. EveNing & Tanzorchester Fabian 🙂

 TheSisters are the Shag Ahoi! line-up of Berlin’s all‑female hot jazz band Toolbox Orchestra: Beatrice Jugert (singing saw), Katharina Wegner (trumpet), Andrea Schwemmer (clarinet), Nina Thaler (banjolele), Andrea Ramirez (guitar) and Isabel Rößler (double bass), with changing vocals. Everything began with three ladies, a singing saw, a washtub bass and a banjo; later the band was completed with guitar, trumpet and clarinet and is now one of the few all‑female hot jazz bands in Europe, with a warm, earthy sound inspired by the music of 1920s and 30s New Orleans. They have played with international trad‑jazz star Meschiya Lake and at swing dance, jazz and culture festivals in Germany and abroad, including Jazz Fest (FR), Lugano Buskers Festival (CH) and Jazz Fest Aberdeen (UK), composed and performed film music for the short film festival interfilm Berlin (2020–2022), and released their debut album 1928 in 2023. Youtube Instagram
