Noughties bangers on repeat · the 2000s
2000s Hen Party
Dance Class
Plymouth.
Body rolls, diva struts and the songs that soundtracked everyone's first proper night out — a 2000s chart routine built for your group by a private choreographer in Plymouth city centre. An hour costs the party £160 in total, ninety minutes £185, and neither figure ever gets multiplied by headcount.
The noughties gave us the greatest hen-do soundtrack ever recorded — we simply added the choreography.

Why the 2000s works
The decade your
playlist never left.
Somewhere between Crazy in Love and Umbrella sits the exact centre of most brides' musical universe, which is why the 2000s option keeps climbing the rankings of our hen party dance classes in Plymouth. This was the decade of proper pop choreography — videos everyone studied, dancefloor moves everyone attempted — and your instructor turns that shared history into a routine the group owns by the end of the session. It flatters every ability level, because the noughties themselves ranged from strut to full body-roll and we pitch each section where your party is comfortable.
Expect the big hitters: Destiny's Child stances, an Usher-style glide, shoulder pops out of a Girls Aloud chorus, and — if the group demands it, and the group always demands it — that Single Ladies hand. The routine strings four or five signature moments into one number so it feels like a tour of the decade rather than a single song done to death. Devotees of one particular icon can go deeper with our dedicated Beyoncé theme, and groups whose 2000s happened mostly in a school assembly hall tend to fall hard for High School Musical instead.
The class slots beautifully into a Plymouth weekend: an hour at the studio while everyone is fresh, then down to the Royal William Yard for golden-hour drinks with the routine still being half-performed at the bar. It is the right pick for parties in their late twenties and thirties who want moves with a bit of sass but zero chance of embarrassment. Fair warning from experience — brides who book this one keep dancing, and a good number reappear later asking about wedding first dance lessons for the big day itself.

Hour by hour
One hour in
the noughties.
It opens with a strut. Literally — the warm-up teaches the walk first, because once a group of hens can cross a studio like it's a 2005 music video, everything after comes easily. The routine then lands in sections: a chorus of shoulder pops, a verse built on the glide, a body-roll bridge taken at whatever speed your group finds funny rather than terrifying.
The final quarter pulls the sections into one continuous number with the bride fronting the formation, run to full volume until it feels effortless. On the ninety-minute booking the ending gets a proper polish plus a filmed performance — one take done straight, and at least one gloriously unhinged.
The post-party verdict
In their own
words.
"We asked for maximum 2000s and got it — struts, shoulder pops, the lot. Twelve grown women screaming when the first track dropped."
"The 2000s class was the highlight of the whole weekend, and we did a boat trip. The body-roll tutorial alone was worth the money."
"Our bride has rewatched the noughties finale video every day since the hen do. Every. Single. Day."
"2000s playlist, zero notes. Iconic behaviour all round."
2000s specifics
Asked often,
answered here.
Six things worth knowing before you book the 2000s theme for a Plymouth hen do — and a form up the page for whatever we missed.
01What's on the 2000s playlist?
The heavyweights: Beyoncé, Destiny's Child, Usher, Rihanna, Girls Aloud and friends. We usually build a medley across the decade, but if the bride's heart belongs to one specific banger, name it on the form and it becomes the spine of the routine.
02Are body rolls compulsory?
Nothing is compulsory. The choreography offers a full-sass version and a toned-down version of every section, and each hen picks her own lane on the day. The mix of the two is usually where the best laughs live anyway.
03What if half the group can't dance at all?
Then they're our favourite kind of student. Everything is taught in slow, repeated chunks with no assumed knowledge, and noughties choreography is forgiving — attitude covers a multitude of missed counts. By the final run nobody can tell who was worried.
04Is there a dress code for the class?
None from us — comfy clothes and trainers do the job. That said, groups who raid their own wardrobes for velour tracksuits, low-rise everything and tiny sunglasses report absolutely no regrets, especially once the cameras come out.
05Does the bride lead the 2000s finale?
She headlines. The formation is designed so the routine visibly revolves around her — a solo strut down the middle, the group framing her for the final pose. We calibrate it to her personality, from full diva to gently-featured, based on what you tell us.
06Where exactly does the 2000s session run?
We run it from a studio we hire in Plymouth city centre, handy for restaurants and bars afterwards, and you'll get the exact address as part of your booking confirmation. If your party is staying somewhere with a decent-sized living space, we can also come to you.
