Saturday Evening Dances


Saturday Dances - Ashford:

No partner or experience needed!

The caller teaches each dance and then calls the moves while you are dancing, so you don't even have to remember the sequence. These dances are designed for people with two left feet. Bring your friends or come alone. Everyone dances with everyone and has great fun!

Great music, great calling, great dances: what more do you want?

Hothfield Village Hall, Park Drive, Hothfield, Ashford TN26 1EQ
Ceilidhs with Live music from great bands!
Bring your own refreshments. Water provided.

2022 - COVID:
We aim to keep all our dancers as safe as possible. While things appear to be improving, the pandemic is still with us. Vaccinations and LFTs are appreciated, but not required. Please stay at home if you have symptoms of COVID-19 or you feel unwell in any other way.
