Back in Eaglesfield Village Hall tonight, to practise our dances. The summer season has been amazing if you consider the weather, but we wish we'd had a few more dancers in our ranks.
Now is the time to come and have a go! Don't worry – you don't need to have ever danced before!
I've seen newbies telling us they have two left feet and they'll never get the hang of it, and yet, by the following summer, they are dancing like seasoned pros!
Morris dancing engages both the body and the brain. You get great exercise, but you have to pay attention too. It's not a mindless activity like running on a treadmill. Learning the shape of a new dance is such a satisfying activity. And everyone is super friendly so don't worry about making mistakes. Everyone does, even those with loads of experience.
BRING A FRIEND! There's no commitment. Just come along and try it, and have a laugh. And if you haven't got a friend, there's a whole gang of potential new friends here!
email Ally if you have any queries.
