There is no need to be an experienced dancer to join in. We always have a ‘walk through’ for each dance and the Caller will tell us what to do during the dance itself. You don’t need to come with a partner – we swap partners in between dances and there’ll always be someone to dance with you.
What is English Country Dancing?
English Country Dancing is like ceilidh dancing, but more interesting.
Our type of dancing is now considered to be one of the best alternative health solutions there is, providing gentle physical and mental exercise.
Our music is usually recorded, but occasionally we have live music.
