News and Notices

Instagram…world of pure imagination

After getting a great last minute deal on some tickets we decided to take the kids to see Charlie and The Chocolate Factory The Musical at the New Wimbledon Theatre last night.

It was a great night with some interesting effects used to recreate some of the set pieces from the original film. Thankfully the kids fell asleep on the way home!

Our next sequence dance workshop and social will be the Tango Serida on Sunday 25th June.

These workshops teach the sequence dance, normally between 30-45 minutes (unless it’s Argentine Stroll!), and then are followed up by social ballroom, Latin and sequence dancing.

The session lasts for 2 hours and includes free tea & coffee.

Introducing Bachata

In our quest to make sure that you can dance to ANY piece of music we are introducing a new dance, the Bachata.

This will come in for all classes this week, except for the Sunday night, Monday night and Wednesday afternoon classes (which will still do Merengue).

Bachata, like Merengue, hails from the Dominican Republic but has a more free-flowing rhythm.

We look forward to introducing you to this fun dance. Going forward the final dance in our rotation will cycle between Merengue, Mambo, and Bachata for all classes except those listed above which will still be Merengue.
