History

 The club was named ‘XS’ to celebrate its heritage, because many of its founder members were ex-students of Cambridge University. Over 20 years later the club is still based in Cambridge, although now we have a diverse membership welcoming dancers of all backgrounds, levels, and locations!

NB: If you are interested in purchasing the music or costumes from our past routines, do get in touch with us here.
