folk dancing!!

That does sound like fun, much easier than struggling to learn ball-room for instance I might have a look around locally and see if I can persuade OH to come too.

we tried ballroom Tamith but we did not progress very well!!

would still love to be able to waltz and quickstep but not to be at moment!!

I've been folk dancing for years and it is fun, we all get it wrong and forget what we're doing, and nobody minds at all. There is a lot of laughter, the tunes are lovely and it's a great way to keep fit. There's always a walk-through first and you gradually get to know the various moves etc. that most of the dances are made up of. We love having new people joining us. Definitely recommended.

What music do you dance to? One of my favourite folk bands, Blowzabella run folk dance sessions.

I've been doing this since I was 17 and in fact met DH there.

We've had masses of fun over the years and will be at a dance about an hour from us this Saturday night.

Hope you continue to enjoy it.

The mere mention of "folk dancing" reminds me of the quote "You should try everything once, except incest and folk dancing"

Having said that, I have fond memories of a New Years Eve spent attempting to do Scottish Country Dancing in a local village hall here in Devon.

My mother mentioned how much she admired the hosts dirk.

(No, that is NOT a typo)
