The
course is suitable for both beginners and those who have already experienced
Circle Dance. If you are new to Circle Dance, a sense of rhythm is helpful, but
otherwise a willingness to "give it a go" is all you need.
The
week's programme will include modern and traditional dances from many different
countries. There will always be a
variety of pace and style, with some dances having just a few steps whilst
others need more learning. Dances will
be repeated later in the session or the next day, with everyone's favourite
dances included in Friday's programme.
After
the first day, subsequent sessions will be carefully planned, with the pace and
interests of the group always in mind.
What
do dancers love about Circle Dance? "I forget all my day to day
worries" "it simply enhances my life" "it's magical - so
calming and the music is just beautiful".
In
Circle Dance we are mostly dancing joined in a circle. However, if we
still need to stay distanced due to Covid-19, I will make sure all the dances I
choose are 'Covid-friendly'
I.e.:
I will make sure that we can dance safely by keeping the required distance from
each other. I will achieve this by choosing appropriate dances where we
don't come into close contact, perhaps choreographing or re-choreographing
dances as needed.
