Dance

Although there are specialist events for experienced dancers of particular dance styles, a barn dance is normally a fun and light-hearted event for everyone to enjoy, regardless of age or ability. Circle dances, longways sets, squares and even a waltz for couples — there can be plenty of variety, and the opportunity to meet a new partner each time through a dance. The caller will explain all the moves fully, working with a radio microphone to help the dancers on the dance floor. ...

A weekly barn dance with live bands and a caller to instruct the dancers.

We always have live music, the Amycrofters being the resident band. We have guest bands several times a month. Our aim is to have fun, make friends, get a little exercise, and enjoy our dancing. If you have a partner or friend who cannot dance, they can still come and socialise and enjoy the music while you dance.

A day of Irish Set Dancing. Workshops run from 10.30am to 16.30pm, followed by a céilí in the evening from 8.00pm to 11.30pm. Workshops are to CDs; the céilí features live music by Pendragon.

Irish Set Dancing is a great way of socialising and keeping fit at the same time. It is a social form of dance where each dance is in the form of a square, danced with four couples. You don’t need to bring a partner as many come just by themselves and pair up or swap with other dancers. We dance to Irish music, usualy to CDs but occasionally to live music. We welcome all levels of dancers from beginners to the more experienced. We also have a tea/coffee break as we all like to have a chat and get to know each other better. ...
