diggy Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 You could try Square Dancing. It's not over energetic, especially when you first start but once you've learned a few basic moves, you can really get going. I started dancing but then progressed to calling and don't dance much now but when I do get up for one, I can get a bit of a dab on! We have all shapes and sizes and nobody is under pressure - there are no competions or exams - it's just fun and frienship set to music but it keeps you active without bouncing around silly and without impact and it keeps your mind working too. It's a good social activity and when you've done all the basic moves, you can go out to Saturday dances at other clubs if you want - but again no pressure. It's at Ecclesall Parish Halls on Ringinglow Road up top of Ecclesall Road. Meet Monday evenings 7.30 til 10pm. We will teach beginners anytime but of course if we know a few new people want to try it, it would be good to come on the same night. It's only £2.50 for the night with tea and biscuits at break. You even get to try it for 2 weeks free to see if you enjoy it. Let me know if you want to come and try folks - it would be good to see you. People have heard all about line dancing but not American Square Dancing. It's for everyone - bring all your mates. If you want to look up more info, there's a web site I can get you details or just come along, but it would be nice to know how many are coming. Hope this sounds llike something you might try.

diggy Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 P.S. Many of our members don't come with partners. We usually have more women than men but some of us women dance as men so you don't necessarily have to worry about who you dance with either. Everyone dances in squares of eight so you get to swap round and dance with everybody during the evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
