Anyone Fancy Trying Out Morris Dancing?

[LapsedVeggie]

Cutlers Gate - a new Border Morris Dancing Side in Sheffield is having some taster sessions if folks want to come along and try it out. 

We are a friendly bunch and only too happy to answer questions about what we do and how to get involved. More details about the three  taster sessions can be found via:

Mel could be interested,  I've watched Morris dancing in Whitby and it's very popular,  I'm more skillful with my hands than my feet - froze in front of goal when playing hockey at school,   though a good sprinter,  maybe ask one of the brickies,  good with their hands.

 

Where do yu dance?

 

I saw the Lancashire cotton dancers perform in Nantwich,  they had dirty faces.

Morris Dancing is possibly one of the most quintessential English traditions in this country.

 

At a time when some people are saying we should be proud of our English heritage, and show the diverse populations than now inhabit our island what being English is all about, I nominate Al Bundy, Jack Grey, Axe to your Morris dancing group.

I'm sure they're not as miserable in real life as they appear on this forum

Why? They're Romanian!

Sir Thomas Beecham famously said  " You should try everything once, except Morris dancing and incest. "

 

Sounds like good advice to me.
