News and Notices

Instagram…lovely lavender

As part of their continuing drive to be more eco-conscious Burnham Parish Council have planted lavender on one side of the studio.

Not only will this provide help with saving the bees, but it also brightens up an area that had begun to look very untidy. As always we’re very thankful for the care and attention put into the surroundings and make our studio such a lovely location to visit, even when you’re not dancing.

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.

We will be recapping this in 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.

Jive & Waltz Course Extensions

Learn To Dance Group Lesson at Cherry Orchard Studio

Our One Dance Courses in both Waltz & Jive will be extended for an additional 6 weeks.

Those who have attended the previous 6 weeks, or are at least Improver 2 level, are welcome to sign up for the extensions.

Courses cost £45 per person and you can book below (to reserve a space for another person please visit the full booking system).

It is still possible to join the Jive course this week, but it is your last chance on this current extension and you’ll have to contact us to book.

Our next sequence dance workshop and social will be the Sindy Swing on Sunday 30th July.

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.

Summer Dinner & Dance

We’re already over a quarter booked for our Summer Dinner & Dance on Friday 11th August.

The menu includes a selection of sausages, burgers, marinated chicken and halloumi kebabs to choose from. As for sides, coleslaw and potato salad are joined with a rocket salad, trio of tomato and roasted vegetable couscous.

Tickets cost £32.50pp and final numbers are required by 4th August 2023.

To book for another person you will need to visit the full booking system or contact us.
