Open Houses
Our next Open House will be Wednesday, January 15, 2025, 7 – 9:30 pm.
Open Houses are FREE and are the perfect place to see if English dancing is right for you. We usually hold one in the early fall, and another after the winter holidays. Please note that this dance form requires moderate fitness. Mental and physical agility are essential components.
What level of fitness do I need to have to participate?
