About this Event
A 6-week course run by Front Room Theatre, introducing several dance styles to show tunes and pop music through the ages. You can dip in any time, but there is some connection between the styles in 2 week blocks, e.g. Broadway jazz then Martha Graham, so it is advisable to get to more than one. Pay on the door: Cost: donation only. Suggested amounts between £5 and £10. Electronic payments possible. The teacher always will offer creative and fun adaptations to support any injuries. Focus is on adults, but anyone can join. Course leader is First Aid and DBS certified and fully-insured.
