Term Dates

Winter Term 2025

Term was due to start on Wednesday 8th January but due to the weather was postponed to the 15th January and finishes on 14th May. We don’t have an Easter break.

At our last committee meeting the idea of putting a crib,  with links to videos,  for each week’s class on the website was on our agenda.  Arguments for and against were discussed. It was agreed this will run for a trial period following which it will be reviewed. 

It is thought that having a crib available would help dancers to become more familiar with dances.  There is no obligation to look at the dances beforehand, if you don’t wish to.  We understand that some dancers prefer to simply come along to the class without having to prepare first. Others may wish to see what is planned. The dances will be taught and walked as now.  

The programme may vary – some dances dropped, others added, depending upon numbers and who is present on any particular week. The link to the crib for next Wednesday is below.
