News and Notices

Instagram…boo boo Ballroom

One of Antony’s lessons came in this week and complained that she couldn’t get a CoCoMelon song (a kid’s animation series) out of her head, thanks to one of her nieces.

Naturally this lead to Antony finding the offending song in question on Spotify, determining that you could Viennese Waltz to it, and then proceeding to whirl them round the room!

We’re not sure that was what they had in mind…😂

Friday Tea Dances Cancelled

Cherry Orchard Dance Studio Venue Hire Interior Panoramic

Today (Friday 27th September) will be our final Friday afternoon tea dance. Whilst, over the course of the year, these sessions have covered their costs this is not sustainable long-term.

We have made the decision then to cancel the Friday sessions. Monday tea dances will continue as normal as these are well supported.

We apologise to those students who are only able to attend on a Friday afternoon.

Tom will be opening up his diary for more private lessons on Friday afternoons.

Beginner Bachata Course

There will be a beginner Bachata course starting from Sunday 13th October at 6pm.

The four week course costs £35pp and is available to book now.
