About This Deal

The Charity

Almost 50,000 women and 400 men are diagnosed with breast cancer in the UK each year. CoppaFeel!‘s mission is to make sure all breast cancers are diagnosed at the earliest stage possible, making treatments more effective and survival rates higher. The sooner they educate young people about the signs and symptoms, the sooner those people will be able to spot when something’s not right and be confident in seeking treatment. How do they do it? By targeting music lovers at festivals and students at universities. They organise events that are fun and inspiring. They engage fellow young breast cancer survivors to be their voice and pester famous faces to help reach an even wider audience. Awareness and education is at the core of their operation. Founded in 2009 by 23-year-old Kris and her twin sister, the charity has since gone from strength to strength, gathering the momentum and support necessary to raise awareness and save lives.

The Prize

Vincent and Flavia of Strictly Come Dancing fame will meet ten charitable Groupon holders for a hot-footed master-class in the cha cha and tango. Each randomly selected winner can bring along a buddy and between hip-swinging and boleos, all 20 guests can indulge in a celebrity meet and greet with the stars of the dance floor. Latin music will set the studio alight at London's 8 Northumberland Avenue, as contestants are danced off their feet by Vincent and Flavia, along with Chiswick Theatre Arts. Once all danced out, newly footloose aficionados can quench their thirst and toast to sequins with a glass of bubbly each. Strictly for ballroom lovers only.

Groupon asks Vincent and Flavia about the Strictly Come Dancing family, favourite moments in the spotlight, and what CoppaFeel! means to them.

G: What are you most looking forward to about Groupon Goes Dancing? What do you think the biggest challenge will be?

"We both love teaching, so we enjoy any chance to teach very much. It's always great seeing people learn to dance to the music. It will be a fairly large group, and that's always a challenge. But, we love a challenge."

G: How do you turn someone with two left feet into a brilliant dancer? Where do you start?

"You have to start slow and build gradually. It takes time and it's always important to start with the basics and fundamentals."

G: Who did you enjoy working with most on Strictly Come Dancing?

Flavia: "Obviously, winning last year with Louis [Smith] was a huge highlight for me; it was great working with someone who is so skillful. However, dancing with Russell [Grant] was such great fun."

Vincent: "I loved dancing with Dani [Harmer] last year and making it to the final. She was great fun. Also, Louisa Lytton and Rachel Stevens."

G: How does it feel now that you’re no longer part of the Strictly family?

"Although we’re not part of the main line-up, we are still very much part of the Strictly family. We're still looking forward to performing on the show this year."

G: Why is CoppaFeel!’s work important?

"One in eight women in the UK will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. The fabulous work that CoppaFeel! does is vital - raising awareness and educating women on the symptoms and how to detect them. We’re thrilled to be helping the charity with this event and we can’t wait to lead the class. So, start donating!"
