This is a block of 6 classes each Tuesday (6, 13, 20, 27 June and 4, 11 July).
Arrive for 5:50. The class is from 6pm to 7pm, with a half-hour practice time afterwards.
Blues dancing comes from the same tradition as blues music. It is an improvised dance, which has a relaxed, grounded feel. Here's an example, but there are so many styles of blues: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAFb0m1vk_k
No previous dance experience needed. No partner needed.
I'll keep the class small, so I can give lots of individual attention to students. The venue is a short walk from central Hexham, with space for parking (full details given when you book)
Social dancing is fun, sociable, creative.
Melissa Davy has years of experience of teaching dance, and is really excited to be teaching this class.
The class is a good option for complete beginners, or for people who want to refresh the basics.
You need to book in advance. If you are new to blues come to the first class for free, before deciding if you want to sign up to the whole class. To find out more or book your place email melissadavy@gmail.com Cost: £50 (£40 for students or when money is tight)
