Classes we offer
Our class is split into three sections:
The Dance Class: 6:30-7:30pm – The hour includes going over the basics of Regency and Georgian Country dance, including arms, simple footwork and easier dances. This is perfect for beginners and improvers. For those new to Georgettes and/or historical dance, it is recommend attending this class for the first term.
The First Season: 7:30-8:30pm – Our middle hour focuses on learning steps and medium difficulty dances. More complicated parts of the dances will be covered in ‘The Dance Class’ section, so this hour will be suitable for all. The expectation on attending this class is that all dancers know the basics of Regency and Georgian Country Dance.
The Nonpareil: 8:30-9:30pm – During the final hour of the class we learn more complicated footwork, simple baroque repertoire and work together on harder contra dances. This section is only suitable for intermediate level and above.
No partner or costume necessary.
Please wear comfortable clothing and footwear for moving and dancing around in.
Not essential but Ballet or Jazz shoes or Greek sandals recommended for regular attendees.
Over 18s only.
As well as learning dances our favourite Heroes and Heroines would have danced to, these are social dances and the aim is to have fun!
