Sunday Social Community Dance

Greetings Dancers and Dreamers,

We are really looking forward to our next event on 4th January 2026 @ The Garlinge Green Theatre.

Come in from the cold and join us to gently shake off the festivities and find your dancing feet on this first Sunday of 2026. There will be a short welcome and warm up followed by a 1hr 45 minute dance journey. Then time to socialise and enjoy a warming vegan lunch.

Please note the slight time change.

Doors open at 10.30am for an 11am start.

Here is a link to previous sets for your listening and dancing pleasure...

What to expect.

A family friendly dance space. Great music, space to move and feel into your self. The music will flow through different genres and tempos. Ecstatic dance is an oppurtunity to explore movement, connection and mindfulness.

We welcome families, however when the dance is happening, we ask young and older to move away from speaking and to respect each others spaces. There is time to socialise before and after and plenty of space in the theatre to find what you need.

Our DJ, Hana Joy, will be filling our ears and hearts with her eclectic mix of tunes to move our bodies to. Whilst familes and children are very welcome, this will not be music aimed towards children, it will be a musical journey taking us through many different genres of music; from soft, flowing melodies to harder beats and many places inbetween.

Please see below for the practicalities.

There is plenty of parking on site but please ride share if you can.

The theatre has refreshments available, but they only take cash, so please bring cash.

Also, if you are buying tickets on the door, cash is preferred.

If you don't have cash, we will be asking you to pay through eventbrite.

We are a family-friendly space, but the music will be loud, so you may wish to bring ear defenders for the sound sensitive.

We ask everyone to take off their shoes, but if you need to wear them for health reasons, please bring a clean soled pair with you for smooth dancing.

Let us know if you have any other accessibility needs. The space is carpeted

All tickets sold prior to the event will include lunch after the event. You are very welcome to bring accompaniments for this to share. Or your own food if you wish to eat with us but have dietary requirements. Tickets after 12 noon the day before the event and on the door should include food, but to guarantee it, please buy your tickets before the cut-off!

Please note that the theatre is a vegan space, so we ask you to respect that and not being animal food products with you.

Looking forward to sharing some great music and lush food with you all.
