Free groups, classes inside E20, and which ones you need to book.
Some classes for under 5s meet inside E20, at Chobham Manor Community Centre and in the Park. The free groups are a short walk away in Stratford, or a bus ride to Hackney. What follows is what each organiser says on their own page. Times change each term, so check with them before you go.
