Step into the elegance, charm, and playful romance of the Regency era as Austen’s Shelf invites you to a special Bridgerton-inspired dance class led by the wonderful Susan de Guardiola. As part of our grand opening weekend celebration on June 6th, we’re transforming the space into a lively, music-filled nod to the ballroom scenes we all know and love.

Whether you’re a devoted fan of Bridgerton or simply curious about historical dance, this experience is designed to be joyful, welcoming, and delightfully immersive. Susan will guide participants through graceful Regency-era inspired dances, breaking everything down step-by-step so no prior experience is needed, just a willingness to have fun and move to the music.

Guests are warmly encouraged to dress in Regency-inspired attire or simply come as you are and enjoy the experience in comfortable modern clothing!! (Costumes are encouraged but never required)
