AN alternative type of baby dance class is being held at Bromsgrove and Redditch venues.

The Sling Swing classes are being held at the Dolphin Centre in School Drive, from 1.30pm to 2.30pm on Mondays, and at the Reddi-rooms at the Kingfisher Centre, in Walford House, on Saturdays, between 9am and 10am.

Classes are unique as participants take part with babies in slings or carriers, allowing children to feel the rhythm of dance and listening to the music.

Classes are designed to be fun, giving participants gentle movements, and provide an opportunity for parents and carers to come together and socialise, while taking part in a new activity.

The first session, where parents can try out the activity, is free.

Parents and carers can borrow slings during classes if they do not have one of their own.
