Ballroom Dancing


Group Description :

Our Winter Term will commence on Tuesday 6th January 2026.*

*The session scheduled for 27 Jan (week 4) has been cancelled to accommodate funeral arrangements.  Consequently the term will extend by one week and finish on 17 Mar.

Greg and Gill will reprise and teach new routines for the following dances:

First Half: the dramatic Tango and cheeky Cha Cha Cha

Second Half: the beautiful slow Waltz and Latin American Rumba

Sessions will continue to encourage Members of all abilities; introduce beginners to Ballroom and Latin American steps and routines, while offering further development for more experienced Members. Regardless of experience, a great emphasis is placed on dancing for social interaction and most importantly enjoyment.  New Members are always welcome, you do not need a partner as our Members are very happy to help if a partner is required. Please call in and say hello on a Tuesday morning at Lorton Street Church.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE - Please note that the Church are planning to introduce a permit system for use of the car park. We will keep you updated on their proposals when we get them.
